Thought Leadership Dinners (TLD) strives to attract the e-commerce logistics industry's brightest minds to network, knowledge-share, and grow as professionals, all while experience a uniquely-local dining experience in the industry's most critical geographical hubs.
In the heart of the vibrant city that never sleeps, a serendipitous encounter at Manifest 2023 sparked the beginning of what would soon become a revolutionary community in the e-commerce logistics space. Drew and Steve, our co-founders, had their paths cross for the very first time without any prior acquaintance. Little did they know, this meeting was the seed for a partnership that would redefine professional networking within their industry.
From Strangers to Visionaries
Drawn together by a shared curiosity and a hunger for innovation, Drew and Steve quickly realized that their meeting was not just by chance but a pivotal moment waiting to unfold. Over great meals and countless conversations, they discovered a mutual passion for fostering a community where industry leaders could connect on a personal and professional level. Their bond was cemented by a commitment to knowledge sharing, friendship, and the relentless pursuit of excellence.
