The Ambassador of Finland to Italy would like to invite you to join an online event on Smart, efficient and green ports - Finland’s experiences on Thursday, April 22, 2021 at 15:00-16:30 (Helsinki time).
Finnish high-tech solutions can already be found in Italian ports. Finland is a global forerunner in developing digital technologies that lead into more efficient and safe port operations as well as smart and sustainable solutions. Together we can find even more ways to collaborate.
During the event, through two case study ports in Finland, you will discover how digital technology speeds up port operations and creates new business opportunities. You will also get to know the dynamic Finnish ecosystem with its various solutions from zero emissions to 5G technology. The roundtable conversation with Italian and Finnish ports will lead the way to understand better the future collaboration opportunities between our countries.
The event is supported by the Port Authority of Centre-North Tyrrhenian Sea, Civitavecchia Italy.
