“Our vision was to have a Board of Directors who reflects the ground transportation industry — diverse, innovative, and progressive.

The GGTI Board of Directors will hold its first board meeting in the coming weeks to discuss the future of GGTI and how it can grow to become an invaluable community for its members.

If you are interested in serving on the Board alongside this amazing group of industry representatives, please email info@ggtinstitute.org for consideration. Priority will be given to individuals and companies from newer and under-represented segments of ground transportation.
