Cris’s focus is on the Logistics Technology and Non-Asset Based sector (freight forwarders, NVOCC/IAC, CHB, 3PL, etc.). Once the preparation phase is complete, Cris leverages his network with U.S. and multinational companies to identify potential partners in the industry with a synergistic fit. He oversees the preparation process and handles negotiation of the LOI terms, staying involved with the Logisyn engagement team until a successful transaction is concluded.

Cris has decades of on-the-ground experience in the logistics industry, and has worked in dozens of countries solving complex supply chain and technology challenges. In the mid-1990s he co-founded Fountainhead / CargoWise which went on to become a major industry technology. Cris saw a global opportunity that would require more scale, and he helped merge the U.S. company with an Australian firm in 2006. Post-merger he ran global sales and U.S. operations while being a significant shareholder and member of the Board of Directors.

After CargoWise (now WiseTech), Cris was recruited by a private equity firm to act as the industry consultant in an acquisition of a publicly-traded logistics company. It was an eye-opening experience and it was the beginning of his commitment to use his network and experience to help mid-size and privately held firms manage the difficulties of the M&A process.
