GlobalTranz Executives Share Technology Trends and Future of Freight Insights at November Conferences


GlobalTranz Enterprises, Inc., a leading technology-driven third-party logistics (3PL) solutions provider, today announces two speaking engagements for CEO Bob Farrell and CTO Greg Carter (News - Alert).

Following an exceptional third quarter where GlobalTranz continued to outpace many of its competitors in customer expansion, financial growth, and advanced technology leadership, CEO Bob Farrell will share valuable insights at MarketWaves18 on November 12th in Grapevine, Texas, on the much anticipated "From Startup to Market Leader" panel. Farrell will provide attendees with learnings about how GlobalTranz has helped transform the transportation and logistics industry with its end-to-end logistics technology and sophisticated transportation solutions. He will discuss the company's successful mergers and acquisitions strategy alongside organic expansion of new and existing customers, as well as provide insight into current and forward-looking industry and technology trends impacting the freight market.

"MarketWaves18 provides the opportunity for logistics professionals, thought leaders and technology visionaries to come together to share insights on how market developments and technology trends are paving the future of freight. I'm looking forward to an interactive dialog on best practices for bringing disruptive technologies to market and scaling a company from startup to a mature and growing business."

Farrell joined GlobalTranz in March of 2016. He has a track record of driving revenue and profit growth by creating competitive and operational advantages. Since taking on the role of chairman and CEO of GlobalTranz, Farrell has driven the advancement of the company's multi-modal, multi-platform transportation management system and has led the company through seven acquisitions, most recently acquiring Chicago-based AFN Logistics.



CTO Greg Carter will also speak later this month at ThoughtSpot Beyond 2018 on November 14th in Washington D.C. Carter will bring his more than 25 years of product development and technology leadership to conference attendees in a panel titled, "Upgrading the Customer Experience with Embedded Analytics." This panel will cover how big data, machine learning, artificial intelligence (AI) and predictive analytics technologies are driving efficiency and service enhancements for businesses and their customers.

"GlobalTranz was an early proponent of leveraging advanced analytics technology to help businesses maximize logistics performance and drive competitive and operative advantages. I look forward to discussing analytics trends with other technology leaders and how businesses can capitalize on their most important asset: data."
