Technology Summit

About the Summit

In 2019, this Summit was the largest in IBTTA’s history. Technology is a critical element of so many aspects of running a toll agency.  It not only affects the operations of the business but also affects how we communicate with transportation and mobility partners and the driving public. This year, we’re headed to San Diego with CTOC (California Toll Operators Committee), the consortium of 10+ California toll agencies as our host. There will be pre-meeting roundtables, IBTTA Foundation Fundraisers, a large exhibit hall, sponsorship opportunities and, of course, great content. The program is divided into four tracks: Field Systems and Lane Systems, Back Office Systems and IT, Innovation "Tech" Talks and Special Topics. Please note that this meeting is from Thursday–Saturday – mark your calendar!
