Chain.io, Founder & CEO Brian Glick | Founding Philly Ep. 26

On this episode, I interview Brian Glick, Founder and CEO of Chain.io. Chain.io is connecting the software that moves supply chains. Their platform connects systems so businesses have better control over the information they need to manage their supply chain.

Chain.io was founded out of necessity, not just desire. With 15 years of experience working with global retailers, logistics providers, and software vendors, they witnessed the challenges and inefficiencies in integrations.

They observed the rapid emergence of new technologies and recognized the urgent need for these platforms to connect with existing systems, even outdated ones.

As Brian shared during our conversation "We saw this problem starting, that SaaS was going to explode as a category in supply chain. And that suddenly, instead of having one system at every company, you are going to have a thousand."

Whether it was supply chains for pharmaceuticals, apparel, lumber, or car parts, Brian and his team identified the same problems across verticals: there is no standard for data sharing or integrations between partners and vendors.

So they built a solution that plugs into any system, giving shippers, freight forwarders, and software vendors an efficient way to connect to any partner or vendor’s software.

From purchase orders and invoicing to freight visibility and receiving payments, Chain.io was built to facilitate the processes core to supply chains.

Listen to Brian share his journey building Chain.io, the knowledge he acquired from years in the supply chain and logistics sector, and how he and his team are revolutionizing integrations to ensure smoother and more efficient business processes for all stakeholders.
