One of the biggest questions faced by founders today is how do you continue to build when rules don’t stop shifting?
TechCrunch’s 2025 celebrates TechCrunch’s 20th anniversary from October 27th-29th at Moscone West in San Francisco, hearing directly from Flexport founder and CEO Ryan Petersen at Builders Stage.
Why Ryan’s Story Is Important
Since launching Flexport in 2013, Ryan Petersen has helped move more than $175 billion in goods around the world, raising $2.3 billion, redefineing the way supply chains are managed in an age of volatile technology-driven.
But Petersen’s lessons go far beyond logistics. After resigning as CEO in 2022, he returned less than a year to stabilize the ship, charting the next stage of growth. Along the way, he was keenly voiced on topics such as tariffs, trade policy, and the role of AI in global commerce.
What you learn
This is not a theory. A master class of resilience and clarity under pressure. Petersen shares:
How to guide volatility and uncertainty. What you need to reset your midstream strategy. A way to balance a long-term vision with a short-term reality.
Don’t miss it
Catch Petersen Live at Builders Stage in 2025. The exact session times will be announced soon on the agenda, but trust us. This is something I want to see a mistake.
