FreightWaves | Sep 18, 2026 12:55 PM EDT


FreightWaves has announced its 2027 FreightTech100, recognizing 100 companies selected for their innovation across the freight and supply chain technology industry.



The 2027 class marks the eighth year of the FreightTech Awards. This year drew a record number of nominations, reflecting the growing competition among companies developing technology for the freight and supply chain industries.



For 2027, the FreightTech100 will be celebrated in person at the inaugural F3 Awards Dinner on Monday, Oct. 26 in Chattanooga, alongside the Shipper of Choice Awards and FreightTech25. Full details are below.



For the FreightTech100, FreightWaves’ Research team reviews all submitted nominations and evaluates them based on documented innovation, market impact and how a company’s ideas have evolved from the previous year.



The list is the first stage of the annual FreightTech Awards process. After the 100 companies are selected, an independent panel of more than 80 industry executives evaluates them to determine the FreightTech25, which recognizes the top 25 companies in freight technology for their impact on the industry.



2027 FreightTech100



With over half of the companies on the 2027 list not included in the 2026 FreightTech100, the changes highlight how quickly the freight technology landscape is evolving. Newer companies are entering areas such as artificial intelligence and automation, while established transportation companies continue to expand their technology offerings.



The 2027 FreightTech100 spans a broad range of freight and supply chain technology, including transportation management and visibility, fleet and telematics, artificial intelligence, automation and autonomous trucking.



The list includes a mix of large transportation and logistics companies, technology providers and startups.



Artificial intelligence and automation are prominent themes throughout the list, with companies developing tools to automate transportation and logistics workflows. Autonomous trucking is another area of focus, with companies such as Aurora and Waabi developing technology aimed at automating long-haul freight transportation.



Fleet technology and safety are also represented, with companies such as Samsara, Motive and Geotab focused on vehicle monitoring, fleet operations and driver safety.

A look forward



The FreightTech100 is now the pool from which the FreightTech25 will be selected. An independent panel of more than 80 industry executives will rank the 100 companies, and those rankings determine the 25 that make up the FreightTech25. The voting is independently overseen by accounting firm Henderson, Hutcherson & McCullough.



New this year



For the first time, FreightWaves is recognizing the FreightTech100 in person. The inaugural F3 Awards Dinner takes place Monday, Oct. 26 at 6 p.m. ET at The Signal in Chattanooga. The dinner will honor the entire FreightTech100 and reveal both the FreightTech25 and the 2027 Shipper of Choice Awards, bringing the leading technology companies on this list together with the shippers from that day’s invite-only Supply Chain Day. The FreightTech25 rankings will be announced live in the room.



Companies named to the 100 will receive their official FreightTech100 winner badge through their nominator, to display on their website, email signature, and social channels.



Seating is limited and reservations are required by Oct. 10. Table and attendance details are available at https://live.freightwaves.com/f3-awards-dinner , and for support questions please contact: events@freightwaves.com .



The F3 Awards Dinner is the night before FreightWaves’ broader F3: Future of Freight Festival, which takes place Oct. 27-28 at The Signal in Chattanooga.
