‘Technology is the solution’, says DP World director
The conference TOC Container Supply Chain: Middle East 2013 opened at the Dubai World Trade Centre (DWTC) earlier this month with a clear emphasis on the key role that automation has to play in providing a sustainable future for the maritime industry.
As part of his keynote address, Mohammed Al Muallem, DP World’s senior vice president and managing director, claimed that technology is the solution for ports and terminals if they are to meet the capacity demands of the future and that we must as an industry “automate wherever possible”.
