Leaders in Tech and Ecommerce

Andrew Meyer has led Pickle Robot in shaping a new category of physical AI, deployable, human-like robotic systems built for the toughest workflows at the dock door. In this episode, he breaks down how Pickle’s robots are transforming the brutal, variable world of unloading and loading trailers across import, distribution, and parcel operations. We explore how years of research, from MIT labs to Honda’s ASIMO program, inform Pickle’s product philosophy, and why solving the “demo to product” gap matters more than ever as automation moves out of pilot mode and into enterprise deployment. Andrew reveals how learning-based robotics expand real-world capability, why the dock door is the ideal beachhead, and how customers can go from curiosity to robots driving throughput in as little as four weeks. From redesigning human roles to delivering measurable KPIs without reconfiguring buildings, we examine what it takes to scale physical AI with reliability, cybersecurity guarantees, and a fleet flywheel that gets smarter with every deployment. This is a deep dive into the future of robotics in logistics that is built on data, systems thinking, and operational reality.

Heidi has helped Infor become a leading provider of end-to-end supply chain solutions across industries like fashion, retail, electronics, manufacturing, and logistics. In this episode, she discussed how Infor Nexus connects over 94,000 companies across global trade ecosystems, bridging physical and financial supply chains. We dive into multi-tier traceability, the power of sustainable financing, and why agentic AI is poised to reshape operational execution. From navigating tariff complexity to launching digital product passports, we explore what it takes to future-proof supply chains with data, clarity, and scale.

I’m joined by Akash Gupta, Co-Founder and CEO of GreyOrange, a company revolutionizing warehouse operations with AI and robotics. From powering 150,000 daily shipments at peak to reducing fulfillment costs by 30–40%, GreyOrange’s technology is reshaping global supply chains. We explore how their orchestration platform “GreyMatter” and path-optimizing engine “DeepNav” help top retailers automate at scale, and how decision-making automation is just as crucial as physical robots. We also unpack trends in labor, warehouse design, and the “solver mindset” that fuels GreyOrange’s innovation.

What if machines, not people, were making your company’s most critical supply chain decisions? In this episode, I interviewed Frederic Laluyaux, President and CEO of Aera Technology, to unpack how decision intelligence is reshaping enterprise operations. Frederic shares why he left SAP and Anaplan to pioneer agentic AI long before ChatGPT, and how Aera now powers everything from inventory optimization to life-saving clinical supply chain moves. We explored real-world ROI from $60M in inventory savings to accelerated tariff-response automations, and dived into the architecture of self-driving enterprises. It’s a bold, forward-thinking conversation about system design, AI limitations, and a vision of work transformed.
