’Tariffs’ is not the most beautiful word i world. The two most beautiful words are: ’Trade Facilitation’.
Today I moderated a superexciting session on ’Innovating Trade Facilitation: The Role Of Technology in streamlining Customs Operations’.
Seven lessons learned from the session;
🌎 Trade is good, it provides growth, propserity & poverty reduction;
🌎 Trade Facilitation is key, which makes borders & customs essential;
🌎 We can only trade facilitate together, using excisiting industry & customs solutions for multiple purposes, connect & interconnect;
🌎 Always trade facilitate & do BPR before digitzing border processes;
🌎 It is all about people & using smart technology, AI & machine learning as an enabler to support our people making borders safer, faster & more predictable;
🌎Own you data. It is gold in the bank. It is the new currency
🌎Let’s move from talk to action. The time is now.
Today I & my colleague, the outstanding Amy Morgan from our partner Altana, spoke at the World Customs Organization Tech Conference & Exhibition about ’Maersk Trusted Value Chains Powered by Altana’, how we use & machine learning to create a trust badge, the digital product passport for goods – on a first day panel session moderated by Dan Garcia.
Great interest from the participants at the conference, superinteresting discussions with clients – we are on our way!
Join us on the journey. If you are at the event come to G7 or contact me to learn more how you can get your smart border solution or a passport for goods.
Customs has never been more important than now – but it will be even more important tomorrow.
The WCO Tech Conference and Exhibition is not only the biggest Customs event in thw world but also a great re-union for Customs friend and family. i have already met so many friends and colleagues from my long career in customs – my brothers and sisters.
