The Future of Logistics

Simon Wong 15 Sep 2017


A Simple Survey: When do you think the Autonomous Cars

would become a Reality?

5 Years?

10 Years?

15 Years?


If in 2032 all taxis are autonomous or semi-autonomous,

What will happen to the taxi industry?


IoT (Internet-of-Things)

Robotics

Big Data Analytics

AI (Artificial Intelligence)

Most of them are here, or coming !

But that’s not all, there are many new technologies:


Each of these technologies would bring unforeseen consequences to

our industry, And even the way we live!


Internet-of-Things (IoT)


With IOT, there will be

New Business Models and the

Speed-of-light Globalization


Globalization and Digitization have exponentially increased the rate of market penetration

Time Taken to reach 50 Million users..

Telephone – 75 Years

Imagine:

In 10 to 15 years time, much manual labour would have some form of robotics or automation as Assistance

Many industries would be CHANGED by new business models with latest technologies

Retail, Manufacturing, Services, LOGISTICS will never be the same!


How we need to Respond and Adapt: Embrace New Technologies! Adopt or Create:

New Equipment, New Process, New Training, New Talents…

Take Part in the New Industrilaization, or REINDUSTRIALIZATION!

The whole industrial community needs to Brainstorm together to see how Hong Kong can Thrive in this very different ecology and environment.

LSCM is working hard to help Hong Kong industries to acquire technologies, with increasing interests from many sectors.


In Summary, What will happen in the next 15 years in Hong Kong?

All Depend on

What WE ARE GOING TO DO STARTING FROM TODAY!


Thank You Very Much
