AI Workshop
Explore the potential of AI applications
30 September 2025, 13:00 - 16:30
AI is increasingly shaping logistics, but how relevant is it to breakbulk and project cargo? This session demystifies AI by providing real-world applications in transport engineering, vessel operations, and supply chain tracking. Learn how companies are using AI for efficiency gains, risk mitigation, and automation without replacing the human element. This is a half-day workshop and includes one networking coffee break. You will need to be available to attend for the whole duration to be eligible to collect your certification at the end.
