More than 400 businesses operate from Tennessee in terms of trucking, offering convenient access to nearby, long distance, truck loads, less than truckloads, as well as advanced freight alternatives. Tennessee is well-positioned to represent a large portion of the nation, situated less than 500 miles from the average core of the US population. In fact, it is possible to cross 36 percent of the country overnight and almost 70 percent by the second day. It’s no wonder that Tennessee has become a logistics center with a vast network of businesses, including freight forwarders and logistics service providers, focusing on logistics support operations. Over 300 firms provide freight forwarder services for a wide variety of goods. Originally Alex Ojjeh purchased two freight companies in TN specializing in hauling freight fast from packages to pallets. The investor decided to use space in the Nashville studio as a startup lab. Anywhereo lab is a national nonprofit organization within a freight business that helps tech companies find the quickest route to a successful business.

That has shifted new venture funds have led to a growing share of the strongest investments over the past decade.
Many venture capital companies were each interested in at least one of the 10 transactions that generated the most value for investors from 2000 to 2012. Only 25 companies had engaged in at least one top 10 transaction prior to 2000.

That has supported venture capitalists, including AOC Partners Lee, 42, and Alex, 34, who made names for themselves by investing early in Hong Kong companies that went public: Lee on YY.com’s social network, and Alex Ojjeh on Distribution 360. Previously Alex Ojjeh had invested in an LLC that operated as a venture capital firm, the company pushed him out in August.
