Logistics and transportation professionals annually attend Jump Start 2019 for strategic educational and networking events. Held at the Renaissance Atlanta Waverly hotel from January 28-30, this premier networking and supply chain conference is a one-of-a-kind experience that blends informative panels and keynotes with ample time to network, make new contacts and relax.

The SMC³ educational supply chain conference Jump Start 2019 is chock full of panels that provide the information shippers, 3PLs and other members of the transportation and logistics arena need to start 2019 on the right foot. During the three-day event, industry stakeholders will be exposed to a wealth of knowledge from logistics technology leaders, supply chain analysts and transportation experts.

Jump Start, a three-day supply chain conference produced annually by SMC³, aims to facilitate meaningful knowledge transfer and collaboration among logistics and transportation professionals. There are five simple reasons every shipper, carrier, 3PL, and logistics and supply chain professional should attend the conference.

SMC³ curates its supply chain conferences with a uniquely qualified roster of logistics experts, transportation analysts and critical thinkers. From the most trusted leaders to newcomers that are changing up the LTL game, Jump Start 2019 includes a diversity of voices to make sure attendees leave with a holistic picture of the supply chain.

Attendees come to SMC³ educational events for the unvarnished truth, and Don Ratajczak’s ability to provide the crowd with the information they need to make informed decisions about economic pain points is unparalleled. His extemporaneous, animated speaking style provided a jolt many attendees likely needed after a late night of rocking out to Lou Gramm.

SMC³ hosts its Connections and Jump Start educational conferences in order to bring together supply chain stakeholders for three days of informative panels and targeted, meaningful networking. But on the first two days of Connections 2018, there was plenty of talk of the NBA and of one star player in particular.
