This week’s guests are Chad Kennedy, Senior Product Manager at DAT, and Samuel Parker, Associate Director Shipper Segment at DAT.  Chad and Samuel hosted and ran the most recent Shipper Summit in Kansas City, which had close to 100 shipper customers.  As the kick-off event of DATCON each year, the Shipper Summit is an invitation-only, shipper-only event that features expert panels on procurement and transportation management as well as a forum for peer-to-peer discussion on a variety of pertinent topics.  The following two days of DATCON featured speakers and discussions on a range of topics from AI to cybersecurity.   In this episode, Chad, Samuel, and I discuss the highlights of the Shipper Summit and DATCON and share the key takeaways from this unique event.
