The SE “Ukrainian Sea Ports Authority” and the Baltic Ports Organization (BPO) have launched a strategic partnership aimed at developing long-term cooperation, exchanging experience, and implementing joint initiatives in the port sector. The agreement was signed by Vitalii Vaidych, representative of USPA, and Bogdan Oldakowski, Secretary General of BPO, during the Baltic Ports Conference in Gdansk.
The cooperation between USPA and BPO provides for the exchange of best practices in port management, development of joint projects in investment, logistics, energy efficiency, and green technologies, as well as implementation of digital solutions to optimise port operations.
