Amir Khaleghi

Amir Khaleghi is the founder and CEO of Curbhub, a boston-based transportation tech company with a proprietary routing and scheduling technology that enables collaborative multimodal last mile delivery. Amir has over 14 years of experience in various supply chain and logistics roles and before Curbhub led category operations and strategic finance teams at Wayfair. Given his experience with building integrations with local delivery service providers, crowdsourced delivery platforms, and autonomous delivery fleets to drive efficiency in the last mile, Amir will be sharing thoughts on the operational, security and information flow challenges of operating a multiplayer transportation system, as opposed to a monolithic transportation system like Amazon's where a single entity owns and oversees the process end to end. He will also talk to the implications of providing increased visibility to customers, and the potential customer expectation challenges that shippers and logistic service providers should have in mind as they determine the level of visibility they can realistically afford to offer to customers.

"Connecting the dots" – ensuring seamless delivery

The e-commerce supply chain depends upon a series of critical links that bind numerous interdependent transactions together. While the physical nature of goods transportation and delivery creates inevitable friction at each touchpoint, digital data transfer can and must become virtually seamless. This session will present innovative methods for mitigating in-transit misconnects through collaborative collection and sharing of transaction data amongst all parties, while providing full visibility of shipments from fulfillment to shipment to delivery and return. The presentation will illustrate how to ensure successful shipping by “connecting the dots.”
