Container Supply Chain Conference 'Digital Day' Thursday 20th October / 11:30 - 13:00 GMT-5
In recent years we have witnessed shipping lines becoming logistics integrators and ports embracing digitalisation to enhance their efficiency and competitiveness. In the Americas, given the wide-raging digital maturity of its port & terminal sector, some levelling up is needed so that the region as a whole can truly capitalize on digitalisation and transform this into a significant advantage. Otherwise, new technologies like 5G, AI, digital twins or Blockchain –among others– cannot be properly integrated into the digital infrastructure that already exists at each level of the supply chain. Despite the growing multiplicity of initiatives and start-ups that look to digitalize the sector, a common data language that fully connect all industry players remains elusive. It is therefore necessary to set the benchmark for digital systems, processes, and protocols, as well as facilitating digital investment schemes and partnerships across the industry. It is through collaboration and realistic goals that digitalisation can truly transform maritime trade.
