NDTA-USTRANSCOM Fall Meeting
“Powering Global Deployment & Distribution – Ready, United, Decisive!“
October 6-9, 2025
St. Louis Union Station Hotel
St. Louis, MO
The National Defense Transportation Association (NDTA) and U.S. Transportation Command (USTRANSCOM) co-sponsor the NDTA-USTRANSCOM Fall Meeting 2025, at the St. Louis Union Station Hotel, St. Louis, Missouri, Monday, October 6 through Thursday, October 9, 2025.
The Fall Meeting is a four-day, NDTA-USTRANSCOM co-sponsored, annual event that brings together U.S. government, allies, industry, and academia logistics and transportation experts to build relationships, examine and discuss a wide range of topics, identify and solve challenges, and provide education and professional development with the opportunity for attendees to accomplish professional certification requirements.
This year’s theme aligns our discussions with the USTRANSCOM Commander’s Strategic Framework and focuses the Joint Deployment and Distribution Enterprise on the direction we need to take and the resources we need to leverage to provide the capacity, posture, and command and control needed to gain and maintain the strategic advantage over any adversary. Gaining the advantage will require trust and close relationships between government, industry, allies and partners.
Our program includes General Sessions with keynote speakers, fireside chats and moderated roundtables. The Transportation Academy consists of over sixty classes organized under topic tracks and taught by subject matter experts including flag officers and industry executives. Professionals can apply to receive Continuing Education Units for their certification requirements. Information sharing is provided through the NDTA Expo Hall & Resource Center, government, industry and NDTA meetings. We will provide professional development opportunities for our attending young leaders.
Please come join the discussion and help us power global deployment & distribution! See you soon at the historic St. Louis Union Station Hotel!
