Join Route Fifty as we covered the National Governors Association’s Transportation Innovation Summit during CES2018 in Las Vegas.

CES is the annual ‘what’s next’ in technology. This year, Nevada Governor Brian Sandoval welcomed his colleagues, as well as state government transportation leadership from across the nation, to Las Vegas to discuss how technological innovation is creating new opportunities and challenges for the public sector. Our discussion focused on transportation technologies that are here today and poised to revolutionize a lot more than our trip to the grocery store.

From autonomous vehicles to drones, ride sharing apps to the internet of things—join Route Fifty, Governor Sandoval and the National Governors Association learned about the implications of new transportation technology for our citizens, the economy, and state and local leaders.
