ACT Expo is opening early-bird registration and releasing its 2027 conference agenda to help fleets reduce operating costs and improve operational performance. The event brings together fleet operators, vehicle manufacturers, shippers, technology providers, and industry leaders to explore commercial transportation technologies, fuels, infrastructure, and digital solutions.

ACT Expo 2027 will take place May 17-20 at the Las Vegas Convention Center in Las Vegas. The conference program is designed for fleet leadership teams across operations, maintenance, safety, technology, finance, IT, and sustainability.

Shaped by input from the event's fleet planning committee and other industry stakeholders, the agenda will explore several areas affecting fleet operations and technology investments: fuel and operating costs, fleet maintenance and uptime, autonomous vehicles, emissions requirements, fleet safety, technology investments, powertrain options, alternative fuels, and EV infrastructure. The program will include real-world fleet case studies, C-suite perspectives, technical workshops, and sector-specific discussions.

The ACT Expo exhibit hall will be open May 18-19 and feature more than 400 exhibitors and sponsors, along with over 200 advanced commercial vehicles. Displays will include medium- and heavy-duty trucks, commercial vans, buses, and off-road equipment.

The Expo Hall Theater will host product demonstrations and discussions about emerging technologies. Fleet operators can also compare solutions, connect with manufacturers and technology providers, and evaluate equipment for their operations.

The ACT Expo Ride & Drive will give attendees opportunities to test advanced commercial vehicles and evaluate performance, handling, safety features, and driver comfort. Manufacturer representatives will be available to answer questions about vehicle range, maintenance, infrastructure requirements, and total cost of ownership.

For the second consecutive year, ACT Expo will offer continuing education credit opportunities for fleet professionals. In 2026, more than 25 conference sessions and 10 workshops received approval for credit through NAFA Fleet Management Association and Green Business Certification Inc. Details about eligible 2027 sessions and workshops will be provided as they are finalized.

“With fuel and operating costs continuing to climb, and the technological complexity of today’s commercial vehicles ever-increasing, fleet leaders can't afford to stand still,” said Erik Neandross, founder of ACT Expo. “Every investment decision matters, and understanding which technologies can deliver real savings and operational improvements has never been more critical. ACT Expo brings together the technologies, industry leaders, and real-world fleet experiences that operators need to reduce costs, improve performance, and stay competitive. This isn't just a sustainability conversation anymore; it's a business imperative.”

What this means for the trucking industry

ACT Expo's 2027 agenda reflects the growing need for fleets to evaluate technology investments based on measurable operational and financial results. With fuel expenses, maintenance demands, vehicle costs, and infrastructure requirements influencing purchasing decisions, fleet leaders need more than product demonstrations to determine which solutions make business sense.
