2027 Transportation Reception
The 2027 Transportation Reception is an annual Georgia transportation-industry networking event organized through the Georgia Chamber of Commerce. The tenth annual reception is scheduled for January 19, 2027, from 5:30–7:30 p.m. at The Commerce Club in downtown Atlanta, bringing together transportation leaders, policymakers, and elected officials.
What the event is for
The reception is designed as a relatively intimate business-and-policy gathering, rather than a large trade show or conventional conference. Its value lies in putting executives and organizations involved in Georgia transportation and infrastructure in the same room as government officials and policymakers, creating opportunities for professional networking and conversations about the state’s transportation priorities.
Transportation policy connection
The event sits within a broader Georgia transportation-policy ecosystem concerned with infrastructure investment, freight movement, public transportation, safety, and economic development. The Georgia Transportation Alliance, which works closely with the Georgia Chamber, advocates for long-term transportation solutions tied to economic growth and a statewide multimodal transportation network.
Industry and government participation
Previous editions illustrate the type of audience the reception attracts. The 2026 event was co-hosted by transportation and construction associations, and its program included Georgia legislative transportation leaders, Georgia Department of Transportation Commissioner Russell McMurry, and Georgia Transportation Alliance leadership. That history makes the reception particularly relevant for organizations working in highways, construction materials, engineering, freight, logistics, transit, and transportation technology.
Venue and attendance
The 2027 reception is listed at The Commerce Club, 191 Peachtree Street, 49th Floor, Atlanta, with registration handled through the Georgia Chamber’s account system. The Chamber currently describes it as the tenth annual Transportation Reception; its event listing also provides a Chamber contact for event questions.
