Port authorities around the world pool knowledge and skills for human capital innovation. Employment in ports will continue to increase in the years to come. Strong hands alone are not enough; smart heads are also needed.
Education as innovator
To facilitate this, Maurice Jansen of Erasmus Center for Urban, Port and Transport (UPT) has helped to establish the agenda for Human Port Capital. Maurice also acted as facilitator during the kick-off of the programme. His expertise in Human Capital and education as a source of innovation has proved to be of great value.
Remaining dynamic and competitive
Through digitisation, automation and sustainability, the port is changing and our way of working is fundamentally and irrevocably changing. In Human Port Capital, the port authorities of New York, New Jersey, Vancouver, Los Angeles, Busan, Singapore, Barcelona, ​​Riga, Le Havre, Livorno and Rotterdam join forces in the field of social innovation to ensure that ports in the future will remain dynamic and competitive.
Human Port Capital
The ultimate goal is to set up a joint action programme for human capital in ports, in which port authorities, educational institutions and city and port authorities all over the world work together on social innovation.
