Martin shared the importance of embracing digital opportunities, especially in a highly competitive industry like logistics. He discussed Ninja Van’s innovative system, including empowering riders with mobile technology that makes sure their parcel database is updated in real-time and parcels are delivered fast to customers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“Tech-based system drives innovation across the entire organization and removes a lot of traditional limitations.

Better decisions lead to better speed and a better understanding of what’s driving our customers’ problems, and that makes it more intuitive for us to address those problems.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

He also shared some advice for today’s business owners: “Prioritize innovation. Take the best of what’s been done before while overlaying new ways of thinking on top of them. You can do a little better than your competitors or do something totally different and change the rules of the game.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“Businesses that don’t evolve get left behind.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n
