On 27-28 of August, the Hochschule Wismar as a leading partner of the Connect2SmallPorts project participated in Steering Committee and Partner Meeting in Klaipeda. During the meeting, the project partners agreed on the next necessary actions to be taken to release the full potential of the small ports of the Baltic Region.
One of the goals of the project is the application of modern digital solutions for small ports, thus in the frames of Work Package 3, Connect2SmallPorts has already pre-tested the digital auditing tool in a pilot port outside the eligible area (Port of Haldensleben) and further tested on three other ports including Seaport of Wismar.
The other strands of the project related to Blockchain and IoT for small ports were discussed and the steps to more effective implementation of these solutions were clarified.
