10 九月 2025

Bengaluru: A.P. Moller – Maersk (Maersk), an integrated logistics company, brought together its global technology leaders, engineers, and industry stakeholders today at its flagship technology showcase, Code Cargo 2025, held in Bengaluru. The event offered a powerful demonstration of how Maersk is redefining global logistics through advanced technologies such as artificial intelligence, data science, and platform engineering, with India playing a central role in that transformation.

One of the key innovations on display at Code Cargo was Star Connect, Maersk’s AI-powered fleet energy efficiency platform. Built using edge computing, Star Connect processes over 2.5 billion IoT data points in real time to enable smarter, on-the-fly decision-making during voyages. By applying machine learning models at the edge, the platform forecasts fuel consumption, wind resistance on cargo, and risks like parametric roll, allowing operators to make informed course and speed adjustments within minutes. This enables greater operational safety, improves fuel efficiency, and plays a key role in monitoring emissions and supporting Maersk’s long-term decarbonisation ambitions.

India is not just a growth market for Maersk; it is a vital part of the brain and backbone of our global digital transformation. So many of the innovations and technologies shaping the future of global trade are being coded in India. Our Technology Centre in Bengaluru, in particular, plays a pivotal role in designing the platforms, the algorithms, and the customer experiences that power supply chains across 130 countries we operate in.
