New podcast episode: the world of air freight, with Zvi Schreiber (Freightos)

This is a part of the aviation industry that usually operates far from the public eye and, yet, as we have seen during the recent covid pandemic, plays an essential role in keeping the global economy closely knit together.

So, to better understand how the international air freight industry works, on this episode we have Zvi Schreiber as a guest. Zvi is the founder and CEO of Freightos, a digital platform that aims to disrupt the air cargo space by bringing to it the sort of straightforward and convenient booking tools that air travellers have already been enjoying for a long time. Yes, you read that right, unlike its passenger-carrying counterpart, air cargo is still lagging way behind when it comes to digitalization.

Freightos and its subcisidary Webcargo are sorting this out by aggregating many operators in a single marketplace and providing the tools to transact with them smoothly.

During our chat, we also talk about the structure of the air cargo market and the different players that operate in it. We also touch upon the topic of covid and its effects on the air freight industry and we discussed the role that air cargo operators play in a context of generalized supply chain constraints.

So, tune in for a thorough review of the state of the air cargo industry!
