MONTREAL, CANADA – September 21, 2017 - FleetMind Solutions, Inc., the award-winning technology leader for “smart truck” solutions, today announced that its Vice-President of Sales, Don Diego Padilla, will be speaking as part of a keynote panel on smart technologies and their impact on refuse collection at the WasteCon 2017 Conference in Baltimore, MD.
 
Date: Monday, September 25th
Time: 5:15 PM
Location: Ballroom I & II, Baltimore Convention Center
Conference Program: Smart Technologies
Session Type: Keynote Panel
Title: Smart Technologies and their Impact on Collection & Transfer
 
The keynote will provide an overview of waste collection challenges and how the latest smart technologies and the “Internet of Things” (IoT) can make a measurable impact.
 
“This keynote panel tackles the next evolution of waste collection and transportation,” said Mr. Padilla. “With proliferating IT analytics, cloud computing, smart devices and apps, IoT is rapidly connecting businesses, processes and people on a scale that was previously inconceivable. As a result, the waste sector is increasingly embracing smart technology thinking. Waste collection fleets are already using smart technologies like cart chip/sensors, camera-based real-time monitoring and the optimization of vehicle fleet logistics. This will be an important discussion among industry peers on how technology will further transform our business moving forward.”
 
On Tuesday, September 26, 8:00 AM, a Technical Session entitled “Smart Technologies in Collection Transportation, Part 2: But Wait Here’s More” explores the theme in greater detail. As a follow up to the main stage discussion on Monday, this session will detail specific technologies and how they are transforming, and in some cases disrupting, the industry. The session will include an open forum discussion on the challenges posed by smart technologies on the collection and transportation of waste. The audience will be asked to provide opinions on key questions posed by the earlier panel.
