In his speech, UNIDO Deputy to the Director General and Managing Director, Mr. Ciyong Zou stated, “We are witnessing how mobile connectivity and industrial innovation come together. 5G combined with AI and cloud computing bring many benefits to transport and logistics sectors. The efficiency and quality of jobs have been upgraded greatly. The safety of the site has improved. Participation of women in a previously male-dominated working environment has increased.”
Radoslaw Kedzia, Vice President of Huawei’s CEE & Nordic Region said, “East-West Gate Intermodal Terminal is a story of creating social value with excellent collaboration of different partners and dedicated investors.
