Traxens Helps to Facilitate Digital Transition of French Port

     Traxens, which provides data and services for the supply chain industry, has announced that it is joining the French Smart Port in Med initiative as an associate partner. Traxens is the only Internet of Things (IoT) company supporting the association. The firm generates, collects, consolidates and transforms logistics asset data into actionable insight for clients in the maritime, rail and supply chain industries. Its solutions are intended to digitally transform multi-modal supply chains, to help customers reduce costs, optimize investments, comply with environmental regulations and provide premium services to customers.

    The project was launched in October 2018 as part of the First Smart Port Challenges project by the port authority of Marseille Fos, the Marseille Provence Chamber of Commerce and Industry, and the Aix-Marseille University, with the aim of supporting the digital transformation of the Port of Marseille Fos. Key strategic objectives include the economic and environmental improvement of the port and its ecosystem, the creation of new job opportunities, the strengthening of the relationship between the port and the local community, and the positioning of the Port of Marseille Fos as an innovative digital port in the Mediterranean.
