(ITC Side Event) Digitalization and e-documents

19 February 2019

 

A half-day meeting on “Automation in Transport: Digitalization and e-documents as enablers of growth and development” took place on 19 February, concurrently with the restricted segment of the ITC on the adoption of the ITC Strategy 2030, thus enabling non-governmental high-level participants, who cannot attend the restricted session, as well as larger country delegations to engage in a meaningful dialogue on the benefits of digitalization - e.g. through eTIR - for trade, growth and development and on addressing existing regulatory, political and technical bottlenecks.
