V.O.C. Port signs a memorandum of understanding (MoU) with the Port of Antwerp-Bruges and related Belgian port bodies to support green and smart port development. The MoU sets out cooperation in areas such as capacity building, training programmes, workshops, and sharing best practices among participating port stakeholders. A central focus is the greening of port operations, including efforts aimed at improving environmental performance and adopting more sustainable practices. The agreement also includes work on integrating digital applications to strengthen port management and enable more efficient port operations. The sources describe the MoU as a framework for exploring partnership opportunities rather than detailing specific projects or timelines. By establishing a structured platform for knowledge exchange and skill development, the MoU is intended to help align approaches to sustainability and digitalization with practices used in the Belgian port system. Overall, the agreement outlines cooperation on both environmental measures and digital tools for port operations and management.
