PILLAR 1- DIGITALISATION WORKSHOP- 12th May 2021
“The Current Status and Future Direction of Digitalisation in Ports in the Atlantic Sea Basin.”
09:30-12.30 GMT
Digitalisation is of key importance for the future growth, sustainability and efficiency of the maritime industry. The efficiency of the sector and its ability to conduct its operations in a smart and sustainable manner is of key importance for the competitiveness and future growth and resilience of the Atlantic Sea Basin. In this context, there are a number of existing initiatives underway that are of different stages of development and at different scales. In order to progress, an understanding of the various initiatives underway at both a Member State and multi-partner project level is important. This is with a view to making the following progress:
- Understanding best practice from existing projects that can be leveraged by ports who are considering the development of projects in the context of their own systems.
- Understanding opportunities for a project of scale where a coordinated approach across the Atlantic basin can contribute to wider advantages e.g. in particular in relation to connectivity and the facilitation of trade.
To that effect, the 1st Pillar I Workshop will focus on issues relating to digitalisation and how these can advance the objectives and goals of Pillar I of the Atlantic Action Plan as follows:
- Establish the range of existing digitalisation initiatives in the Atlantic region that will support actions 2 and 3.
- Roadmap to establish the single window environment in Atlantic ports
- Support further representation from Atlantic ports on the Digital Transport Forum
