PortNet provides digital communication and integration between eco-nomic operators and suppliers of both public and private services, with the objective of improving the indicators of efficiency, agility, and ease of operation in the area of import and export of goods. Created in 2009 as a pioneer project in the Moroccan Ministry of Transport with the Moroccan National Ports Agency (ANP), over the last decade PortNet was early to adopt an approach and attitude to drive the digitalization of Morocco’s logistics sector. Its efforts culminated in the creation of an innovative digital tool that has been key to continually modernizing Morocco’s logistics sector—the Single Window. The vision of creating value and accelerating digital transformation has led to the creation of an entire ecosystem, one that is represented within this 17-page report. With representatives from the banking sector, maritime authorities international, and Moroccan shipping agents, port operators, and more, TBY brings insights from across the ecosystem that lays out the recent challenges and the opportunities on the horizon.

In the summer of 1803, Thomas Jefferson sent Meriwether Lewis and William Clark on a journey to establish an American presence in a land of unqualified natural resources and riches. Is it fitting that, on the 200th anniversary of that expedition, the United States, together with international partners, should embark on another journey of exploration in a vastly more extensive region of remarkable potential for discovery. Although the oceans cover more than 70 percent of our planet's surface, much of the ocean has been investigated in only a cursory sense, and many areas have not been investigated at all. Exploration of the Seas assesses the feasibility and potential value of implementing a major, coordinated, international program of ocean exploration and discovery. The study committee surveys national and international ocean programs and strategies for cooperation between governments, institutions, and ocean scientists and explorers, identifying strengths, weaknesses, and gaps in these activities. Based primarily on existing documents, the committee summarizes priority areas for ocean research and exploration and examines existing plans for advancing ocean exploration and knowledge.
