The Annual Forth Roadmap Conference Returns to an In-person Event, June 29-30, in Portland, OR
Portland, OR (June 7, 2022) The annual Forth Roadmap Conference returns to an in-person event, June 29-30, in Portland, OR! The entire Forth staff and board could not be more excited to welcome our peers, partners and members back to the nation’s premier electric transportation event.
The conference program is packed with essential panels and presentations along four tracks: Vehicles, Charging, Impact and Cutting Edge with distinguished industry speakers and panels covering all sectors of the transportation electrification industry and exploring the intersection of clean transportation and racial equity, opportunities afforded by the influx of federal funding, EV use cases, charging infrastructure and emerging trends.
Connect and Network
While the content of the conference is always a highlight, one of the greatest appeals of the conference is the ample networking and receptions each day with so many key players of the transportation electrification industry from around the world in one place.
We are pleased to welcome our attendees with a dedicated expo hall in the Oregon Convention Center hosting exhibitors representing charging firms, energy providers, utilities, OEMs and tech startups.
Get Inspired
We’re thrilled to have Reverend Lennox Yearwood Jr., a national leader within the green movement and President & CEO of the HipHop Caucus, deliver a keynote address highlighting the need to connect racial equity with the climate movement and electric transportation.
Show Up Early
Our side events are not to be missed. We have a variety of electric tours planned –
