EI 101: First-Year Business Experience 2025-26 (all sections)

To develop an idea for a product or service that addresses a logistics issue, start with the same resources you used for your individual research assignment earlier in the semester.  For example:

• Find information about logistic issues within information regarding a public company's supply chain. 
• Search the corporate website.  Many companies have reports on their websites to describe their processes with logistics. 
• Go to industry trade sites for ideas and use the website's search box to look up keywords.  See trade sites linked below. 
• Two business databases that will let you filter your search results to trade publications are Business Source Elite and One Business. Both are linked below.
• Statista is another database with reports on issues within the logistics industry.
• Wall Street Journal:  If you use Google to search for WSJ articles, enter your keyword(s) and then the search operator "site." Example:  logistics industry site:wsj.com
