Firms working in the taxi and private hire industry are set to meet up online for a new digital ‘Taxisummit’ event hosted by Dotted.

According to the technology sales outsourcing specialists, the fully interactive exhibition which is set to take place in March will allow online attendees to communicate with the panel on the main stage.

Those logged on will also be able to network in break out rooms and visit exhibition stands to take part in live demos and discussions.

There will be three main sessions throughout the day offering insight on some of the industry's most pressing topics.

Confirmed guest speakers so far include:

• Thomas Peyerl, CEO of Cordic

• Bob Nixon, CoFounder of iCabbi

• Steve Wright MBE, Chairman of Licensed Private Hire Car Association (LPHCA)

• David Hunter, CEO of Take Me.

More speakers are expected to be announced in due course.

The event is free to attend, with registrations opening soon. Pre-registration is now available.

Azmat Sherwani, Chief Executive Officer at Dotted, said via social media: “Due to the amazing response we’ve received from recent webinars, averaging 200 fleets in attendance, we have decided to create the UK’s first fully digital taxi event.

“A huge thanks to our Premier sponsors, Cordic and iCabbi. With a further 10 companies already confirmed to exhibit, this is set to be an industry event that you don’t want to miss.”
