Joining us in The Deep End today is Vignan Velivela. Vignan is the co-founder and CEO of AtoB, a fintech payments platform modernizing the trucking industry’s financial system, which raised a $155M Series B last year. He was also a part of the On Deck Founders’ third cohort. We are taking a short break from our series on access to housing, to talk to Vignan about one of the biggest challenges facing us at the moment: transportation and logistics. In this episode, we cover the central and essential role of trucking in America’s economy, why the trucking industry’s financial systems were ripe for disruption, how far away we are from self-driving trucks, and what the future of transportation looks like in the coming years.
