0:00I think if I knew how complex was

0:01trucking, I think I would have thought

0:03again. So, the unknown was very helpful.

0:06>> Garrett Biswas thought he had landed on

0:08a simple idea, Uber but for trucks.

0:12There was just one problem. He had never

0:14moved a truck in his life. Then one day

0:17at dinner with friends, he saw a problem

0:20he had never thought much about.

0:22>> He was constantly having to walk out of

0:23the, you know, restaurant and we could

0:25see that he's arguing or shouting with

0:26somebody. I was like, "Hey, is

0:27everything okay?" He's like, "Oh, I have

0:29seven containers that have to go on the

0:30same vessel tomorrow." Then I said,

0:32"Hey, why do you have You should have an

0:33Uber of trucks."

0:34>> That idea became Trucker, a digital

0:37freight platform that connects companies

0:39that need to move cargo with the truck

0:41owners and transporters that carry it.

0:44>> Trucker is the largest digital freight

0:45network across the GCC, Turkey, and

0:48South Asia.

0:49>> Across the Gulf, much of trucking is

0:51still fragmented. Small truck owners,

0:53phone calls, paperwork, brokers, and

0:56long waits for payment.

0:58>> Trucking is extremely important in the

1:00sector because whatever you touch and

1:02feel, consume, it's all touched a truck.

1:05Whether it's a seaport or an airport or

1:07a factory, everything that we consume

1:08moves. Trucking is that connector.

1:10>> So, how does it actually work?

1:12>> There were 30 to 70 different factors

1:14that involve the matchmaking of a demand

1:16and a supply. In Uber, you and the

1:19driver are the two decision makers. In

1:21here, there are 15 plus other people

1:23stakeholders who influence that

1:24decision. You pay 100 dirhams for a cab

1:27transaction and you pay [music]

1:28thousands of dollars for a trucking

1:29transaction. So, it's Uber of trucks is

1:31not Uber at all.
