The Chartered Institute of Logistics and Transport South Africa (Ciltsa) is hosting a webinar on artificial intelligence (AI) and digitalisation and their implications for logistics, transport and the supply chain in Africa.

As a continent on the brink of transformation, Africa is poised to leverage AI and digitalisation to revolutionise its logistics, transport and supply chain industries. Its youthful workforce, increasing digital literacy, and substantial infrastructure investments provide an opportunity for businesses to thrive.

To facilitate a comprehensive understanding of AI and digitalisation's implications in these sectors, Ciltsa is hosting a business-focused free webinar under the theme "Towards a profound insight into artificial intelligence and digitalisation: implications for logistics, transport, and the supply chain in Africa."

The webinar, which takes place on November 30 from 09:00 to 11:00, includes the following sessions:

  •  What is AI and what does it mean for our future? by Takalani Madzhadzhi, CEO of Ashanti AI
  • AI and digitalisation in action: Case studies and leading-edge, practical examples by Munya Husvu – CEO: ISB Optimus
  • AI and digitalisation changing the landscape of telematics by Henry Smith – sales director: Fleet (Africa) - MiX Telematics
