Episode description

Have you ever wondered what it takes to build a fast-growing startup in the shipping and logistics space?

This is a special episode where Don and Bryan got the opportunity to interview their own boss: Gordon Downes, CEO and Founder of the New York Shipping Exchange (NYSHEX).

In this episode, you'll learn about:

1. Gordon's background working in container shipping for 15+ years and how it lead him to start NYSHEX.
2. How to create an exchange where both shippers and carriers win as opposed to operating in a zero-sum game. 
3. The advice Gordon would now give to his younger self before starting a business.

And much more!
