Tim Robinson, our Chairman has been announced as one of six speakers at the Rail Business Daily (RBD) Conference at Rolling Stock Networking (RSN) 2022.

The accomplished entrepreneur – who is also the CEO of technology firm Doddle – has more than three decades of experience working across large public sector industries and private businesses. 

Tim was inspired to establish DigiRail in late 2019, following time at Network Rail where he initially headed up the freight business before becoming Route Managing Director for Sussex. 

A resilient leader with a track record of navigating companies through significant transformation, Tim spent a decade in executive roles in logistics, transport, and freight in both the UK and internationally.  After 25 years in rail which included time at GB Railfreight, EWS and Network Rail, Tim left the rail sector in 2014 to build a Supply Chain software business in the fast growing world of E-Commerce.  In this world ‘digital transformation’ is a way of life, not a major project nor a department at head office. 

During his speech at the conference, titled Digital Transformation – Lessons from a Parallel World, Tim will tell us where he sees great opportunity for the rail sector supply chain as we embrace digital technology at greater scale and will pick out some of the key lessons that the retail sector supply chain learnt in adopting this ‘digital way of life’ to cope with e-commerce growth.
