Glīd Technologies is working on an autonomous shortcut to move freight from road to rail.
Founder Kevin Damoa's experience with logistics began at 17 as a U.S. Army enlistee, loading tanks onto railroads.
Damoa spent 13 years in the U.S. Air Force National Guard as a firefighter and worked in the private sector at companies like SpaceX and Northrup Grumman.
In 2022, while working at Serial 1, Damoa revisited the complex process of moving containers from ships to freight trains.
It was the beginning of his love story with logistics.
