Digital Ship is excited to return to Hamburg for the 10th Annual Maritime CIO Forum

21 Jan 2019 15:46 Shipping News

Digitalisation has reshaped the business world and is increasingly important for gaining competitive edge. Companies who ignore the latest innovations and advances risk being left behind. Emerging technologies, together with the evolution and development of new and interconnected platforms now offer unparalleled opportunities for growth and collaboration within shipping and related transport and supply chain infrastructures.
 
If this new industry era is to be truly realised, then shipping must embrace a new approach to the
traditional supply chain. The delivery of goods has never been more transparent, nor more complex. So, what can digitalisation do to streamline and integrate shipping with the connected supply chain
ecosystem?
