Zipline, co-founded by Keller Cliffton, is revolutionizing logistics by expanding its drone delivery services from transporting medical supplies in Rwanda to retail partnerships with companies like Walmart and Chipotle across eight countries. Cliffton's vision promotes better access and speed in delivery, addressing the inequities in logistics for millions without adequate access to essential products. The company's evolution illustrates the potential of automated logistics to bridge gaps in service as they tackle real-time challenges in healthcare and retail delivery.
"When we started Zipline, our backgrounds were in automation and robotics, and it seemed to us like it should be possible to build an automated logistics system for Earth."
"Logistics really only serves the golden billion people on Earth. If you're in the 7 billion people who aren't in the golden billion, your access either sucks or is nonexistent."
