Last week at Shoptalk 👏 What a difference a year makes.   Last year at #ShopTalk, AI was a "maybe", a topic people were just starting to touch on. This year? It was full bore. From every booth on the floor to every keynote on the stage, AI wasn't just a buzzword; it was the entire conversation.   For the SIB team, this shift created the perfect backdrop for SpendBrain. While the world is looking for ways to adopt AI, we’re focused on how it can actually move the needle for the bottom line. We had some incredible conversations with CFOs and retail leaders about moving past the "hype" and into real-world application. The consensus is clear: the industry is ready to embrace AI-driven spend management, and SpendBrain is arriving at exactly the right time to lead that charge.   Huge thanks to the team for the 28,000+ steps a day and for the deep-dive sessions with so many innovative brands.

We’re excited to be attending ShopTalk Spring 2026, and even more excited to see our very own 3PL expert, Majeed Peffley, take the virtual stage. Join Majeed alongside industry leaders as they break down how retailers can find the right fulfillment fit in today’s evolving shipping and logistics landscape. At Shipware, powered by SIB, we help retailers bring AI-enabled cost intelligence to shipping and logistics with SpendBrain, uncovering hidden overcharges, enforcing carrier agreements, and protecting margin at scale. 📅 Thursday, March 19th at 1PM ET 📍 Virtual Webinar Don’t miss it, register here: https://lnkd.in/evfvyXRQ

🚨 We were featured in Bloomberg Businessweek. 🚨 #Bloomberg recently published a deep dive on UPS, Amazon, and the evolving #parcel market, and we’re proud to have been included in the conversation. The article highlights a key reality of the shipping industry: for years, it often made more financial sense to keep trucks and planes full, even if individual shipments weren’t highly profitable. As our Senior Consultant Adi Karamcheti shared: “It’s like an airline. It’s better to sell that empty seat for a couple of bucks than having it go empty.” That simple analogy captures the economics that shaped #carrierstrategy for decades, and why today’s #transportation landscape is shifting so quickly. Volume still matters, but profitability, network efficiency, and smarter decision-making matter more. We’re proud to bring data-driven insight to these conversations and help shippers navigate a rapidly changing market. ▶️ https://lnkd.in/evZFJAYQ

SIB’s SKO Awards Dinner was one to remember, the momentum in the room was undeniable. This year has been all about growth, stronger collaboration, deeper expertise, and a team continuing to raise the bar. The night wasn’t just about awards. It was about celebrating the people behind the progress, the resilience, the teamwork, and the drive to keep delivering for our clients. Proud of the wins. Grateful for the team. Excited for what’s next. 🚀

RILA 2026 update: the team on the ground is having an incredible week so far. 🚀 AI intelligence is the conversation. Brands aren’t asking if they’ll use AI anymore, they’re asking who they can trust to power it. Because the shift is real: Data is king. But clean, connected data is what makes AI work. That’s why SpendBrain is resonating so strongly, it turns fragmented spend into real-time visibility and AI-enabled cost control. 👉 Want to see what SpendBrain can do for your organization?
