Speaking in São Paulo é

Today I opened the second day of the XI International Seminar on AEO’ organized by Instituto Procomex in partnership with Receita Federal do Brasil with a Key Note Speech on ’The Future of Customs: Implementing Technological Tools to Enhance Compliance and
Efficiency’.

We are the first generation that can transform problems to opportunities with technology & the key is data.

Using data-driven operational intelligence we already today accelerate & streamline customs procedures improving compliance and efficiency by the intruduction of intelligent Digital Trade Corridors generating trust badges of compiled data into product Passports for Goods, that we develop together with our partner Altana – the next generation of AEO.

Great discussions and meetings. Impressive work done by both agencies and business on compliance & digitalization.

I am happy that one of my favourite countries in the world is making important progress for customs and trade.
