Uber Freight

Uber CEO Dara Khosrowshahi joined Lior Ron on the #Deliver2024 stage to talk about the continued growth and evolution of these two businesses. “We’re building out an end-to-end logistics system for people, things, and now shippers on a national and local level,” he said. “No one is trying to do what we’re trying to do—both in terms of the breadth of the businesses, and in terms of the global nature of the businesses.” Thank you Dara for sharing your excitement and vision with us this year!

Cargo theft and supply chain #fraud are making headlines — but they don't have to break your business. Our team at Uber Freight are experts in combating fraud. While incidents of fraud are up 57% industry-wide, they've helped us achieve a 78% decrease across our network. "We've been all hands on deck as an organization really fighting back this incident and that's why you see our numbers going down to the right," said Uber Freight's Director of Compliance Chris McLoughlin. "We've had investment from the top." Chris and William R. McDermott sat down with special agents from the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) to discuss how organizations of all shapes and sizes can mitigate risks to their supply chains.

It's clear why Coach Nick Saban remains a legend beyond his football career. His insights about leadership, discipline, team-building and more were inspiring — and incredibly valuable for us in the transportation and logistics sector to bear in mind in our work every day. He told the audience:   "Talent is not talent if you don't use it. You recruit talent, but you can't recruit accountability. You have to develop that in the organization.”   Thank you, Nick Saban, for joining D'Andrae Larry on the #Deliver2024 stage for a memorable session!
