2025 Executive Briefing Breakfast

The 2025 Executive Briefing Breakfast (EBB) was a huge success! This event brought together top industry executives to share industry insights, network, and discuss the future of traffic incident management (TIM) in Georgia. We are grateful to all the industry leaders who devoted time from their busy schedules to attend this event! 

In addition to the customary breakfast from Maggiano’s Little Italy, attendees enjoyed a keynote presentation from GDOT’s Chief Engineer Meg Pirkle, who shared on GDOT’s current projects, innovations, and the bright future ahead. The room also heard from Jeremy Young of Parkers Towing and Recovery and Chief Gregory Shinkle of Coweta County Fire Rescue on the tragic loss of Toby Bowden, a tower for Parkers Towing and Recovery, and the lifesaving goal of improving responder safety in Georgia.
