TT Talk: An Interview with FIATA's Young Logistics Professional Global Winner, Laura Egerer from EgeTrans
Description
TT Club's mission is to make the transport and logistics industry safer, more secure and more sustainable. A key part of achieving this mission is supporting innovation and encouraging young talent and celebrating those that are making a difference. That's why for the last 25 years, TT Club has sponsored a collaboration with FIATA - the International Federation of Freight Forwarders - which is the Young International Freight Forwarder of the Year Award.
Each year, the regional winners gather at the FIATA World Congress to announce the Global Winner. Enter Laura Egerer. Her 6,000 dissertation (which was judged by an international panel of experts) impressed for its focus on what goes wrong.
From a challenging shipment of a RTO (you'll have to listen to find out what that is...) during the Baltimore bridge collapse, and an incoming shipment of lithium-battery-powered robots while Houthi rebels were attacking cargo vessels around the Red Sea.
A fascinating discussion tracing the challenges of navigating an increasingly complex logistics landscape.
