Show Notes

In this sponsored episode, Mike King, host and producer of The Loadstar Podcast, discovers that quantum physics is not merely relevant in 2023 because of Christopher Nolan’s ‘Oppenheimer’, one of the hit movies of the summer. Rather, it is the bedrock of the technologies now transforming the world of logistics.

Mike is joined by Sean Tinney, Global Solutions Lead for Enterprise Computing Solutions at Unisys, a global technology solutions company that powers breakthroughs for the world's leading organizations.

Mike and Sean discuss how quantum computing and AI are converging to create entirely new paradigms for the world of freight. The future of supply chains is here, and it’s called quantum logistics.
