One Record is a standard for data sharing, creating a single record view of a shipment, which was designed by IATA and brought to life by Nexshore.
Pramod Rao, CEO of Nexshore says: “We are very excited to have Lionel join us in an advising capacity. We are impressed with his business acumen and worldwide logistics expertise.”
Van der Walt started his career in the South African Air Force and worked for IATA for over a decade, holding various leadership positions including President of Cargo Network Services, IATA’s US cargo subsidiary.
He joined online payment platform PayCargo in 2018, initially as a Board Member, then as CEO and President for the Americas in 2019 before taking up his current role as Global Chief Commercial Officer in 2021.
Van der Walt says: “What excites me most about having the opportunity to support and work alongside Pramod and the Nexshore team, is the vision and the potential that the company has to radically transform the ease of access to, and sharing of, critical industry data between all participating stakeholders along the value chain, at a fraction of the cost required by any of today’s current legacy service providers.”
