With gratitude

To everyone who made San Diego happen.

Thank you to every attendee, sponsor, exhibitor, speaker, and volunteer who made the meeting possible. We can’t wait to see you next year in National Harbor, Maryland!

More than 1,700 movers, forwarders, and industry partners from over 100 countries came together at the Manchester Grand Hyatt in San Diego for IAM’s 64th Annual Meeting & Expo. This year’s theme, Navigating the Current, set the stage for conversations about the changes impacting our industry. Attendees made new connections, strengthened longstanding partnerships, and did business together.

Dozens of attendees and their families, many with race bibs, wave and cheer on a waterfront lawn after the charity 5K.

About the meeting

Where the global moving industry meets

Every autumn, IAM brings together the people who move households, goods and families across borders.

Four days of business meetings, education sessions and an expo floor built for partnership. Owners and executives come to find new partners, meet the ones they already trust, and hear where the industry is heading.

It is the one week a year when the whole network is in the same room.
