[07.19] Krenar\u2019s education, his passion for start-ups, and the career journey that led him from space stations, chips, and wireless to founding Tive.
\u201cI\u2019ve always worked for start-ups since I was a kid\u2026 I fell in love with this idea that you can build something out of nothing.\u201d
[12.13] An overview of Tive \u2013 who they are, what they do, and how they help their customers.
\u201cWe make sure our customers have the least amount of shipping problems as they can!\u201d
[13.42] The ideal client for Tive.
[18.08] From theft to compliance, the biggest logistics challenges currently faced by Tive customers.
\u201cTheft is huge right now in the market\u2026 just with one company, every week we\u2019re catching two or three events.\u201d
[20.57] Visibility \u2013 what it means to Tive, and why it\u2019s so important that we recognize its value and translate that into effective supply chain strategies, processes, and tools.
\u201cBetter quality conversations build a better quality of supply chain.\u201d
[24.31] A closer look at Tive trackers, the technology, and what sets them apart from the competition.
\u201cWe\u2019ve really built them purposefully for supply chain and logistics \u2013 and for the people who use this every single day. We\u2019ve built a device, at the right cost, with the right features and right outputs that customers want.\u201d
[26.51] Why Tive has coined the phrase \u2018ground truth\u2019 and what it means to them, and to customers.
[28.14] A closer look at Tive tags; how clients can use them to monitor what\u2019s happening to their product as it moves through its journey; and why it\u2019s just as important to know what condition your shipments are in, as exactly where they are.
[31.08] Tive\u2019s \u2018every shipment matters\u2019 motto, and the impact the industry could make if every organization and professional truly honored that motto.
\u201cIn order to make supply chain, and the whole planet, more efficient, you have to live by it \u2013 every single shipment matters. If we take care of every shipment the way we do high-value ones\u2026 if every shipment got the care it deserves, we\u2019d be in much better shape.\u201d
[33.44] The importance of sustainability, and how Tive weaves it through everything they do, creating products that are better for the environment, and better for their customers.
\u201cOur non-lithium trackers are much better for the environment\u2026 and you don\u2019t have to use a \u2018dangerous goods\u2019 sticker. So, you have sustainability, plus a better customer experience.\u201d
[37.37] Two case studies show how Tive trackers helped highlight a mistake with temperature-controlled cargo, saving a half-million-dollar shipment, and locating a missing million-dollar shipment.
[43.25] The future for Tive, and the industry.
\u201cCustomers are realizing that, to get 100% visibility and really understand their supply chains, they have to start embracing IoT.\u201d
