TIA Announces OTR Tire Conference Agenda

Oct. 30, 2024

The Tire Industry Association (TIA) has announced its agenda for the 2025 Off-the-Road Tire Conference from Feb. 19-22 at San Juan, Puerto Rico.  

Attendees can expect a lineup of nine general educational sessions, a keynote address and interactive breakout discussions.  

The conference will dive into topics such as training, economic forecasts, professional development and government affairs. A live OTR tire service demonstration will also be held at the conference.  

“We look forward to uniting the global off-the-road tire community for the 70th annual OTR Tire Conference in Puerto Rico,” says Dick Gust, CEO of TIA.  

“With strong pre-show registrations, sold out sponsorships, and a lineup of compelling educational sessions, this year's conference will be outstanding.”  

Each day of the general session follows a theme – Wednesday’s topic of focus is Maximizing Growth Through Training. Thursdays focus is Maximizing Growth Through Industry Insight and Fridays focus is Maximizing Growth Through Professional Development.  

In addition to the general sessions, TIA brings daily safety tips from AL Klinge, CEO and managing director of Klinge Holdings Pty Ltd. and three breakout sessions on Friday.  

Breakout sessions topics include Truckers Against Trafficking, Increasing Your Throughput, Efficiencies and Profits with Robotics and more. All of these sessions are free to attend.  

The conference will also offer numerous networking opportunities and leisure activities.  

The room block for the conference closes on Jan. 10, 2025.
