| 摘要： | Speaking to P&H, Jacques Vandermeiren, the new CEO of the Port of Antwerp-Bruges, said, "At the beginning of 2018, Antwerp and Zeebrugge port authorities began holding talks with a view to closer cooperation. These talks prompted the awarding of a joint economic complementarity and robustness study to consultancy firm Deloitte and Laga." "According to the study, the merger would make both ports more robust in existing fields, anchor employment, strengthen their roles in the region, and, by extension, internationally. In addition, it would allow for a faster and better response to challenges such as economies of scale, energy transition, innovation, and digitalization." "On 12 February 2021, the city of Antwerp and the city of Bruges reached an agreement to merge their respective ports. This was confirmed on 22 April 2022 by the signing of the shareholders' agreement. The ambition? We plan to further strengthen our position in the international logistics chain, take a leading role in the energy and digital transition, and at the same time create sustainable added value for society as a whole. Not just for the area of Antwerp and Zeebrugge, but also for all possible stakeholders in the wider national and international region. In short, to become a world port that reconciles economy, people, and climate." |
