METRO Magazine is announcing that transit expert Mark Aesch, CEO of TransPro, will give a keynote address and contribute to the overall educational program at the public transportation industry’s newest networking and relationship building event, Transit Bus eXchange (TBX), which will be held at the Scottsdale Resort at McCormick Ranch in Ariz., Jan. 31 to Feb. 2, 2018.

Aesch is the former head of the Rochester Genesee Regional Transportation Authority and brings nearly two decades of strategic leadership experience. At TransPro, Aesch and his team use a collaborative process that gives clients actionable tools that allow them to drive measurable results. He has also authored two books, Driving Excellence and Saving America, and his work has been reported in several media outlets like the New York Times, the Wall Street Journal, and the CBS Morning Show

TBX is designed to connect an influential group of public transportation bus operators with a select group of product and service suppliers for an exchange of information, ideas, and solutions. Senior-level transit and paratransit employees who qualify will receive a full scholarship to attend that includes travel and education. The deadline to apply is Dec. 15, 2018. 

This year’s supplier hosts are some of the top names in the industry, supplying products ranging from vehicles to software solutions and more that can help transit agencies run more safely and efficiently. There are also still some supplier host spots available. For more information, click here.
