Alumni conference in Marseille

Theme:

Data management systems in logistics allow the digital exchange of information about goods, whether it is their condition of transport, their location, or their documentary data. These analyses, some of which are provided in real time, allow a better flow of the exchanges and a reduction of the costs related to the supply chain.
