    #4 TAPA TALKS Episode 4: The infrastructure and boundaries enabling TAPA EMEA to deliver even more membership benefits

    There’s never been a better time to be a member of TAPA EMEA as the Association delivers more membership benefits than at any time in its 26-year history.   Whether it’s the newly-updated TAPA supply chain security Standards and training support, the recent launch of the TAPATRON AI Assistant and enhancements to the TAPA Intelligence System (TIS), TAPA EMEA’s biggest-ever Annual Conference or regional events in just 12 months in France, Romania, Poland, Sweden, Portugal, Spain and the United Kingdom, there are more and more opportunities for members to increase their understanding of freight crime risks and ready-to-go solutions to increase their supply chain resilience.   To deliver this value, TAPA EMEA has been changing behind the scenes too, with investments in a full visibility CRM tool, and the setting of clear boundaries which aim to drive fairness across the membership benefits offering - and ensure the Association’s income is best invested to deliver more back to its member companies and their representatives.   In Episode 4 of our TAPA TALKS podcast, TAPA EMEA’s President & CEO Thorsten Neumann talks to co-host Sam Pauly about the constant drive to improve the Association’s membership offering, the infrastructure now underpinning this growth, and the commitment to ‘aim high’ to achieve even more as the leading cargo security and supply chain resilience industry Association in the Europe, Middle East & Africa region.

    #3 TAPA TALKS Episode 3: Fighting freight fraud & fake carriers

    The threat to supply chains in Europe, the Middle East & Africa from freight fraud and fake carriers is one of the fastest growing risks to security and resilience, with single incidents causing losses of €1m-plus. Driven by organised crime groups, these types of freight crime are expected to rocket as AI tools make it even easier for criminals to pose as legitimate transport and logistics providers. So, how do you avoid becoming yet another victim? TAPA TALKS host, Thorsten Neumann, and moderator, Sam Pauly, are joined in the studio by Matt Arendas, Vice President, Partnerships at Trans.eu, the digital logistics ecosystem serving a more than 44,000 verified transport partners, forwarders, and shippers across Europe through a platform processing 11 million load offers per month, secured by advanced risk prevention architecture, comprehensive rating systems, and the SafePay guarantee.  Their discussion looks at the risks freight buyers face, the types of modus operandi used by crime groups, why Trans.eu rejects 2 out of every 3 carriers during vetting, and how the new Trans.eu Certified Carrier Exchange, based on TAPA Intelligence and Standards, is working to give transport buyers the security and reassurance they need to safeguard high-value deliveries across Europe.
