On 21-22 October 2026, the Transport Innovation Alliance will organise the TIA Leadership Forum in Peachtree Corners, GA.
The event will be hosted by James Nguyen, Assistant Director of Public Works for the City of Peachtree Corners, and will take place at Curiosity Lab at Peachtree Corners - the renowned living laboratory for real-world technology deployment.
The Transport Innovation Alliance is an initiative by the Cities Today Institute, which provides cities with training and capacity building; leadership meetings; peer-to-peer support; and bespoke research.
The TIA Leadership Forum will mark the 64th meeting for city leaders convened by the Cities Today Institute and serve as the inaugural edition in North America, following its European launch in Barcelona in May.
Format
The invitation-only Forum will bring together a maximum of 20 North American city leaders in a private setting to exchange best practices through roundtable discussions, Q&A sessions, case study presentations and site visits. Select industry partners are invited to join the dialogue alongside Directors and DOT Commissioners of Transportation from local governments.
Programme
The peer-to-peer organisation of the content and the composition of the group allow for active, challenging discussions that help city leaders arrive with a series of issues and depart with solutions based on other city or partner experiences.
With 20 cities present, we interview their representatives for the agenda and there will be short presentations from some cities followed by interactive discussions for the group.
