In the very first episode of The Art of Freight Podcast, Wolfgang Lehmacher, a renowned and independent expert in the field of transport, logistics and supply chain, reveals his thoughts on the current state of play with digitalisation in the road transport industry.

What is the difference between ‘digital first’ and conventional forwarders? What aspects of freight assignment and management can be automated or not? What do we mean by full visibility? What big leaps forward can we expect to benefit from as visibility technology evolves? And which jobs in the sector will be lost to automation?
