The 560 ITS America Leadership Circle held its inaugural meeting Sunday morning, bringing together leaders from the public and private sectors to discuss how the broader community can work more closely together to solve transportation issues.

Founded in January, the Leadership Circle is made up of 30 founding members—a mix of private-sector companies, state DOTs and academic organisations. The brainchild of several active ITS America board members, the Leadership Circle was put together with the support of President and CEO Scott Belcher.

“We wanted to create a space where people can come together to talk about thoughtful policy without falling back on their preconceived ideas,” says Sabrina Sussman, vice president for membership and development for ITS America.

A full list of members is on page 21 of the program and exhibitor directory.
