Hard to believe that the 15th Annual RLA Conference and Expo in Las Vegas is less than 90 days away. At the RLA, we are focused on delivering the best reverse logistics event possible for our members and for all attendees. In 2018, the RLA participated in over 25 events around the world as the voice of the returns and reverse logistics industry. At every event, I talked with my audience, exhibitors, and other speakers, always asking what was good about the event and what did they think was needed to be improved. Most of the events were trade shows by major conference producers focused on revenue, and there are some strong technologies for maximizing the shows.

RLA is a member association and our approach for a conference is different. We strive to have the best industry speakers on the stage. We ask our Advisory Board and members what the newest and most important issues in reverse logistics are. We plan panels for those topics and find the subject matter experts in those areas – from the retail, manufacturing, and academic worlds. We do not have advertisers on our stage. Our 3rd party solutions partners know the RLA Conference is the best venue to bring clients and prospects for the most valuable industry information.

The RLA has become the must attend event of the year because of our members, our speakers, our topics, and our sponsors who all bring their best to our Conference. Bring your best and be a part of the RLA Conference at our new location at the Las Vegas Mirage Hotel.
