Largent's keynote address, scheduled for Monday, Aug.13, will focus on the wireless trends that are shaping the future of the trucking industry, drawing on his rich history as the president and CEO of CTIA-The Wireless Association and his more than seven years representing Oklahoma's First Congressional District in Congress where he served as the vice-chairman of the Energy and Air Quality Subcommittee. He also served on the Telecommunications, Oversight and Investigations and the Environment and Hazardous Materials subcommittees.

A member of the NFL Hall of Fame since 1995, Largent was a record-setting wide receiver with the Seattle Seahawks for 14 years, where he set six career records and participated in seven Pro Bowls. Before taking the helm at CTIA, Largent worked as a consultant for Washington, D.C.-based Wiley Rein & Fielding and traveled the country as a highly sought-after motivational speaker.

Focused on fleet optimization, compliance and the trends affecting the trucking industry, the event features an education program, including presentations by industry experts and many of the companies with which Xata partners. The event also provides Xata customers an opportunity to meet and socialize, and Xata team members will be on hand to answer questions, offer advice and interact with users.

Attendees can save $200 by registering at the early-bird rate of $495 before March 31. For more information and to register, visit xueconference.com.
