Artificial intelligence, advanced telematics, and high-quality operational data are fundamental to improving safety, controlling costs, and meeting sustainability goals.
That is why Geotab Connect 2026, taking place February 10–12 2026 at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas, is a must-attend event for fleet leaders managing complex operations. With more than 3,500 attendees and 80+ educational sessions expected, the conference brings together the people, technology, and ideas shaping the future of fleet and mobility management.
Utilimarc will be on site to help fleet leaders turn these trends into practical, measurable outcomes.
Why Geotab Connect 2026 Matters for Fleet Leaders
The theme of Connect 2026 centers on how AI and trusted data insights are transforming transportation. As fleet operations become more data-driven, the ability to interpret and act on insights quickly is what separates high-performing fleets from the rest.
The 2026 program reflects this shift with a strong mix of strategy, innovation, and real-world application, including:
- Executive keynotes exploring how AI augments human decision-making
- New product launches featuring the latest AI-powered fleet technologies
- 80+ educational sessions focused on safety, predictive maintenance, and sustainable operations
- Marketplace partners showcasing integrations and emerging solutions
- Purpose-built networking events designed to connect fleet professionals, partners, and solution experts
For leaders responsible for large fleets, the value lies not just in inspiration, but in learning how peers are applying AI, hardware, technology, safety, and analytics to solve real operational challenges.

How Utilimarc Aligns With Key Fleet Trends for 2026
Utilimarc’s approach closely aligns with the five trends shaping fleet management in 2026:
- Predictive maintenance and risk analytics that help reduce safety-related vehicle failures by nearly 30 percent
- AI-enabled cameras that identify distraction, fatigue, and unsafe behaviors while providing real-time feedback
- Connected safety ecosystems that link video, telematics, training, and analytics into a single risk-management strategy
- FMIS consolidation that automates maintenance triggers and improves asset visibility
- Data-driven rightsizing that identifies surplus vehicles, frees capital, and strengthens stakeholder confidence
At Connect 2026, these concepts move from theory to execution through real-world examples and live demonstrations. Read our recent blog: 5 Top Fleet Management Trends in 2026 to gain more insight on these topics.
