‘Revival of airports, helipads, drones will support efficient logistics’

Gayomard Driver, Group Chief Financial Officer and Board Member, Jeena and Company, suggests, It is a welcome budget as the focus on infrastructure improvement is apparent. Improvement through the revival of airports, helipads, water aero drones, and advanced landing grounds will support quick and efficient logistics. It could also simplify and improve regional air connectivity, further increasing the growth across the logistics sector. The industry is poised to increase commitment towards developing green logistics infrastructure and an increase in green job avenues as a result of the government’s strong focus on green energy and sustainability in the 2023 budget. Globally, supply chain networks are being improved using AI, and now, with the attention on ‘Make AI for India’ and ‘Make AI work for India’, the Indian logistics sector will be able to do that as well. Sustainable practices paired with improved technology will further improve the establishment of lean operations placing a high priority on process optimization, waste reduction, and raising customer value.”
