Willkommen bei einer neuen Ausgabe der Logistik4punktnull-NEWS. In dieser Woche haben wir folgende Themen für euch: #1  Geodis kauft trans-o-flex und DHL hat angeblich Interesse an Schenker Mehrere Medien sowie die Unternehmen berichten gleichlautend, dass der französische Logistiker die Firma trans-o-flex aus Weinheim kaufen möchte. Nachdem entsprechende Absichtspapiere bereits unterzeichnet wurden, hängt der Kauf nur noch von der Zustimmung der Behörden ab.  Gleichzeitig kommt aus dem Manager Magazin die Insiderinfo, dass man bei der Deutschen Post / DHL wohl Interesse an dem Logistikteil von Schenker hat. Nachdem der Aufsichtsrat beauftragt wurde den Verkauf von Schenker vorzubereiten, ist die Gerüchteküche sehr aktiv. Ein Zusammenschluss der DHL und Schenker würde vermutlich zu einem neuen Weltmarktführer führen. #2 Stationärer Einzelhandel verliert massiv Nachdem die Corona Pandemie überwunden scheint, trifft es den Einzelhandel in den Innenstädten erneut hart. Die Energiepreise sorgen dafür, dass immer Einzelhändler die Innenstädte verlassen. Laut der HDE Daten haben rund 41.000 Einzelhändler ihre Geschäfte in den Städte geschlossen über die vergangenen zwei Jahre. #3 Amazon Prime einigt sich mit EU-Kommission Nachdem die Wettbewerbshüter 2019 ein Verfahren gegen Amazon eingeleitet hatten, um eine Vorteilnahme des Konzerns seinen Konkurrenten gegenüber zu vermeiden, wurde nun eine Einigung erzielt. Zukünftig ist damit ausgeschlossen, dass Amazon auf die Daten seiner Konkurrenten zugreift und diejenigen bevorteilt, die die Amazon Services nutzen. #4 Emissionshandelssystem entsteht aus "Fit For 55" Unterhändler der EU und der Mitgliedsstaaten haben sich auf ein Emissionshandelssystem geeinigt. Danach werden sowohl Unternehmen als auch Verbraucher über Verschmutzungszertifikate zur Kasse gebeten. Wer an der Stelle keine Verbesserung anstrebt und erkennen lässt, kann diese Zertifikate sogar verlieren. #5 Stand zur Digitalisierung der Supply Chain Der BME und die Hochschule in Fulda haben eine Studie herausgegeben, aus der der aktuelle Stand der Digitalisierung ersichtlich ist. Danach ist zwar viel bekannt, aber bei der Umsetzung hakt es oftmals noch ein wenig.

Today we have a very special episode for you. It's different because we typically bring you conversations between a host and one, sometimes two guests that are 45 minutes or so in length. Today's episode is a deep dive into one very specific topic with two people who have very deep domain expertise in this field. And this episode is 2 hours and 45 minutes long. The idea here is to really take the time to tackle one very specific topic and go super deep on it. The two experts are Jonah McIntire, who has been a regular contributor to The Logistics Tribe, both as a host and a guest. And Märten Veskimäe, who's currently a product strategist at Transporeon. Both are super deep thinkers on this topic. They look at examples of businesses that are platforms vs. businesses that aren't, what the defining attributes of platforms are, what areas of logistics and supply chain platforms are suitable for, what successful platforms do differently, how they compete against other platforms and much more.

In this special episode, we look at one of the biggest supply chain challenges to affect both retail and global food supplies, in decades. Russia's effective blockade of Ukraine's Black Sea ports has forced it to seek alternative methods of exporting nearly 25 million tonnes of grains. With supply chain delays continuing to see global food prices soar, the pressure is on to find a solution. As a result, the European Commission recently launched the action plan ‘EU Ukraine Solidarity Lanes', which is aimed at facilitating the Ukraine's agricultural export and bilateral trade with the EU. A key part of this plan is to scale up rail freight and any other convenient transportation to unlock bottlenecks. But that is not without its challenges. It's led to concerted calls on for those within the logistics community to take part, contribute transportation equipment, and help open up freight corridors. To discuss how the ‘EU Ukraine Solidarity Lanes' plan aims to get Ukrainian agricultural produce back in motion, and the challenges that lie ahead, we're joined by guests Serge Schamschula, senior partner manager and Georgia Leybourne, CMO, at Transporeon – a key supporter of the EU Solidarity Lanes initiatives.

In today's episode we discuss a timely topic that is on the minds of many of our listeners: Is now actually the right time to start working for a logistics tech startup? Our guests today are Frederic Krahforst and Jonah McIntire. Frederic is the Co-Founder and CEO of the logtech startup TradeLink and Jonah has founded and successfully sold two logtech startups and is currently working for Transporeon, an established logtech company. Regardless of whether you are a seasoned professional with more of a corporate background, whether you have some experience in startup environments, or whether you are starting fresh out of university, startups, especially in the supply chain and logistics area, can be a very attractive career opportunity. But with all the uncertainty around the economy, an increasingly difficult startup funding environment, etc. there are a lot of things to consider. So today's episode is a very valuable resource for all of you. Another helpful resource and tool is the new The LogTechies Job Board. LogTechies is the first hand-curated job board for the field of Logistics Technology. That's were, Boris Felgendreher, founder and host of The Logistics Tribe and other logistics podcasts, posts the coolest logtech jobs at those companies that he currently finds the most interesting. Right now, the board features really cool logtech jobs at Sennder, Flaschenpost, Fernride, TradeLink, Noyes Technologies. And there are many more to come. You can find the LOGTECHIES Job Board at www.logtechies.com

Jonah McIntire is the founder of TNX Logistics, an AI-based road transportation procurement platform that Jonah just sold to Transporeon. He is also author of the book "Supply Chain Visibility: From Theory to Practice". Jonah holds many contrarian views around logistics and supply chain tech in particular. So this conversation turned into a wide-ranging thought-provoking discussion with our host Boris Felgendreher on the following topics: - Why startups are much less about a grand vision and more about trial-and-error and opportunism - What the first version of TNX Logistics looked liked like and why that didn't work - What actually did work and how - What the “whiteboard rationale” was for launching TNX in New Zealand in “stealth mode” and what the reality ended up looking like - The acquisition of TNX by Transporeon - Jonah's views on the success of Sennder in the European road transportation market. What he admires the company for and what he perceives as “tech-washing” on behalf of Sennder, Uber Freight, Convoy and others - An analysis of the economic models of Uber Freight, Convoy, Flexport - The valuation premium of digital freight forwarders vs. traditional freight forwarders - Why Jonah is bearish on drones in logistics but very bullish on autonomous vehicles and why that technology deserves more attention - Why the vision of humans and AI working together in unison and AI only replacing the boring and mindless tasks that humans don't like to do may be wrong - Is AI in logistics and supply chain actually making jobs better or not? - How to think about breakthrough technologies that will suddenly change an entire industry.
