Industrial collaboration: Need of the hour

At recently concluded 12th edition of The Domestic Air Cargo Agents Association of India (DACAAI), Amber Dubey, Joint Secretary, Minister of Civil Aviation, Government of India told exclusively to Cargo Talk that Industrial collaboration will definitely help in achieving the ambitious target of 10mn tonnes by 2030 for both domestic and international cargo. “Industry should collaborate and work towards achieving one mission – growth. All the respective organisations should team up and keep their ego aside and work towards the benefit of the industry,” said Dubey. Focusing on the growing importance and prominence of cargo drones, he added, “Drones will help in transportation of variety of cargo especially pharmaceuticals to the remote locations and far off areas. We will see more of cargo drones in the coming years.” He also urged the industry to make the best use of adopting cost-effective IT solutions and digitalisation for resilient supply chain operations.
