The Global Cold Chain Alliance Assembly of Committees is the best opportunity of the year for members of Alliance Core Partners (IARW, WFLO, IRTA and IACSC) to discuss key issues, learn about the industry, participate in discussions with colleagues, share experiences, and more. Every committee from the Core Partner organizations meets during the four-day event, which will feature the theme "Back to Basics" in 2007.

There are no registration fees to participate in these valuable committee meetings, the government reception, or the breakfasts or luncheons on Sunday and Monday. To be a part of any committee, the only requirements are membership in one of the committee's organizations, your interest, and a commitment to attend the meeting. We encourage you to serve on as many committees as your schedule permits.

In these meetings, important decisions are made and recommendations sent to the boards of directors of IARW, WFLO, IRTA, and IACSC for action that affects the entire cold chain industry. “I can’t think of a more important activity for members to engage in this summer than the Assembly of Committees,” says Alliance President & CEO Bill Hudson. “The expertise, experience, and leadership they bring to these meetings is critical for us to do our jobs representing them and developing the best programs and benefits to meet their needs.”
