iLINK Presented COP-PILOT at the 3rd “Navigating the Future” Conference on Green Transport and Logistics
iLINK participated as a Gold Sponsor in the 3rd “Navigating the Future” conference, organised in Athens by Techno Publishing / T-Press and the magazine Logistics & Management under the auspices of the Hellenic Federation of International Road Transport Operators (OFAE). The conference is dedicated to green transport, logistics and the supply chain, and brought together more than thirty speakers from industry, government and academia across six panel sessions.
iLINK contributed to the conference programme through the panel “Digital evolution in the road transport of energy products: new legislative requirements and technological solutions”, in which Panagiotis Zikos, CEO and Co-Founder of iLINK, took part as a panellist. Alongside the panel, iLINK presented its smart logistics portfolio, including just-in-time (JIT) logistics, and distributed COP-PILOT promotional material to conference delegates.
COP-PILOT was presented as the initiative through which iLINK is advancing its just-in-time logistics capability from a routing product into a data-driven service. iLINK explained that within COP-PILOT the dispatch of vehicles is triggered by real operational events coming from the field rather than by a fixed schedule, that each consignment carries a verifiable record of its origin and handling, and that the environmental cost of the journey is computed and reported per delivered unit. The audience of transport and logistics operators recognised these as answers to obligations they are already facing — customer demands for provenance, and reporting requirements on the carbon intensity of freight.
iLINK also set out the value the project delivers to the company itself. COP-PILOT gives iLINK a real industrial pilot in which to harden its routing platform under live conditions, access to a European consortium of cloud-edge-IoT technology providers, and the opportunity to combine routing optimisation with distributed-ledger traceability into a single offering — a combination the Greek market does not currently have and which is transferable well beyond the agri-food sector.
The event is recorded under COP-PILOT as an Industry & Use-case activity addressing an industry audience. It supported the project’s dissemination and exploitation objectives by placing COP-PILOT’s smart just-in-time logistics and traceability results before the Greek transport, logistics and supply-chain community.
