it's the futurism digitalization the

port of rotterdam is the biggest port in

europe and i believe it's still one of

the greatest port maybe degrade its port

in the world but we need to change we

need to transform because i believe that

the future of the port is somewhere else

digitalization is going to offer us a

number of things it's going to offer us

more efficient operation of what we're

already doing but that's just the

starting point because it will also

unlock more value with our clients

because we provide them with a digital

service I believe firmly that it's going

to make money as well we're using the

best technology available to collect all

the data transform it into information

which can be acted upon by our operators

IBM was chosen because we believe that

we share the same vision and we also

believe that IBM has the capabilities

for it one of the applications that we

developed together with our partners is

an application that coordinates ships

berthing at a terminal that is a very

complex operation because it interacts

with a lot of people you devolved the

terminal operator the captain of the

ship obviously ourselves so long people

interact and because it needs to be done

safely and securely

it also takes some time and when you are

able to view all the operations of all

these different parties on the same

dashboard then you were able to

coordinate much more safe and also much

more efficient that same operation and

that could save up to one hour for

berthing a ship the value of one hour

for an operator of a ship is about

$80,000 with the choice for the

partnership with IBM we've entered on a

journey where we cannot see the end but

it is going to be a very inspiring

journey and it's going to be the

starting point of an exciting event

which will attract other people which

will attract new competencies I

sincerely hope that they will come to

the port of our mo work with us to make

this a very exciting story
