BREMERHAVEN. Following presentation of the smart port strategy, which had been collaboratively developed in just under twelve months, around 120 participants from companies, authorities and scientific institutions kicked off the next phase of the project at their workshop in Bremerhaven in March. “Today you’ve achieved a real milestone. This smart port strategy comprises a clear schedule with digital roadmap as well as many concrete projects and targets for the intelligent ports of tomorrow,” said Bremen’s State Councillor for Ports, Kai Stührenberg, who’s shown here to the left of Robert Howe, Managing Director, bremenports.”This also included the port community system for port-wide information exchange, the new ship mooring measurement system (SAMS) and the Port Railway Information System (PRINOS) of Bremische Hafeneisenbahn. “The path to the smart port will be a continuous process of development, adaptation and change, whose success very clearly continues to depend on your dedication and that of each and every one of us,” clarified Stührenberg.
