Logistics is a prerequisite for Global Trade Smarter Logistics --> More Trade --> More Human & Economic Development On average Logistics accounts for 12% of GDP --> $10 trillion --> As low as 7% in rich countries (good logistics performance, more trade) --> As high as 25% in poor countries (poor logistics performance, less Trade) --> Known improvement potential (12%-->7%) is $4 trillion China improved from >20% to 15% of GDP over the past 40 years --> GDP soared from $306 billion to $14 trillion --> 800 million people lifted out of poverty 10% of the world’s population still lives in extreme poverty. The TAM and Improvement Potential are absolutely staggering. Unfortunately, Logistics suffers from limited Innovation: Logistics is a very conservative sector, with limited Venture Capital engagement. Investors miss out on great opportunities --> Founders struggle to scale the best ventures. At Tradeworks.vc, we understand that Logistics is the next investment frontier, presenting massive impact and investment potential. Logistics is huge, with significant sustainable development and customer/employee experience challenges: --> A $10 trillion market, and a $30 billion Venture Capital market --> Labour, Capital and Energy intensive, with poor utilisation --> Highly fragmented, with a long tail of hard-to-serve customers --> Digitised, but not Digitalised, leading to poor quality Thanks to a "Perfect Storm" of trends and political shocks (like Covid-19), leading historically poor service and high price volatility, Logistics is now a top C-suite priority. However, Logistics is undergoing a Digital Transformation, with emerging technologies like Big Data, Cloud and IoT. We see a technological paradigm shift from from Digital Apps and Data Silos to Digitalised & Networked Operating Systems. There has never been a better time to invest in Digital Trade Enablers!
