Keynote: Peter Zeihan

Reshoring is the global sourcing and supply chain trend for the next decade. North America is in a prime position to capitalize on the shuffling of the globalization deck. Some of the factors that favor North America when it comes to reshuffling of globalization are geography, demographics and relatively stable governments and the home to the U.S. dollar, which remains the only viable option for a reserve currency. Peter Zeihan, Author of The End of the World is Just the Beginning: Mapping the Collapse of Globalization, joins F3 to describe what to look for when evaluating these changes in the global economy. Peter is joined by FreightWaves Founder & CEO Craig Fuller.Follow FreightWaves on Apple PodcastsFollow FreightWaves on SpotifyMore FreightWaves Podcasts Learn more about your ad choices.

How AI and Simulation Offer Safer Alternatives to Traditional Testing

AI and simulations have been used throughout the development of autonomous vehicles, but the technology still requires millions of miles on the highways before mass commercialization. Bringing AI and simulation to the forefront allows for safer development of autonomous vehicles, while also cutting down on the number of highway miles required to implement self-driving technology. Raquel Urtasun, Founder and CEO at Waabi, is joined by Tony Mulvey, Analyst at FreightWaves, in this fireside chat. Love’s Truck Care & Speedco is the nation’s largest preventative maintenance network over the road.
