The supply chain of the future is sustainable and efficient. As decision makers in this chain, shippers (cargo owners) and freight forwarders play a key role.For a future-proof world, we need to work towards a CO2-neutral society. Making transport and logistics sustainable is an important element in this, but also one of the biggest challenges. The container market will continue to grow in the decades ahead as a result of population growth and the predicted increase in consumption. Rotterdam wants to facilitate this growth and ensure it is sustainable, efficient and data-driven. The port of Rotterdam is in full transition towards carbon-neutral industry and logistics by 2050. We cannot work towards C02 neutral and efficient supply chains alone. Cooperation between all chain parties throughout the value chain is essential. Building a CO2 neutral and efficient logistics chain? Yes, it is possible. But what are the possibilities that exist today? And what are the standout examples leading the way? Join us in this podcast series, along with Sofie van den Enk and experts from the container industry where we'll explore how leading companies have reduced CO2 emissions by focusing on reduce, replace and rethink, within their supply chain.

While being in the midst of the transition to a sustainable society, we simultaneously see sustainability increasingly becoming a competitive factor throughout the supply chain. Digitisation of logistics processes is inextricably linked to this development. Margriet Geluk, Supply Chain Engineer at the NPRC and Young Port Talent of the Year explains how young talent can make the difference for companies searching for ways to be compatible with the supply chain of the future. How is she contributing to the climate goals and why is attracting talent with a more digital profile decisive for success? Presented by Anouschka Laheij.

Overall the cyber threat trend continues to increase as people and businesses are accelerating the digitization of their operations. In this Portcast we talk to Evelien Bras, Director of FERM, who has made cybersecurity her top priority. We will talk to her about the need to increase awareness and how to prevent cyberattacks.

In the port of Rotterdam the Harbour Master's Division receives reports on approximately 230,000 port calls a year. Until recently, those reports were made by email and telephone. These days, 80% of them are processed automatically because the data are right. Data as such are not that valuable. The value is to be found in the insights the data delivers, and in the application of data to optimise the infrastructure, the transport and the handling of cargo. Digitalisation makes automation possible and it leads to better decisions based on data. So it is more important than ever to connect the available space, infrastructure, transport and logistics, not just in analogue ways but also digitally. In this Portcast Harbour Master, René de Vries gives us an insight on how the port is preparing for the future: will autonomous sailing be a viable option anytime soon and where does he think the increase in container ship size will end? Presented by Anouschka Laheij. Featuring René de Vries – State Harbour Master Port of Rotterdam Authority. More information: https://www.portofrotterdam.com/en/supply-chain-talks-the-portcast
