In the global courier industry, technology has the potential to disrupt everything - from conventional tracking to shipping speeds. Thanks to developments in sensor-based logistics, shipping companies are focusing on keeping packages "online"- offering businesses vast amounts of data that allows them to predict patterns and extend the boundaries of supply chains.

In this episode host, Jonathan Strickland sits down with Rob Carter, the Chief Information Officer of FedEx, to talk about the company’s latest products and services, the new technology he's most excited for, and how ubiquitous 5G connectivity will unite FedEx's entire network.
