2021 T1 Virtual Conference

We are excited to bring you our 2021 TAPA T1 Virtual Conference. The Transported Asset Protection Association (Americas) will bring together industry leaders in supply chain security and business resiliency. This year's theme is PB&J: Ports, Borders, and Jets. Our sessions will feature the issues and initiatives impacting our Ports, Borders, and Air.

This annual event is traditionally available to members of the association. However, we will extend this year's event to members and non-members. Even better, we are waiving registration fees for non-members.

Below is the listing of sessions. Additional sessions will be added during the coming weeks so be sure to check back. Register for each session individually. Register for one or register for ALL!
