Welcome to the Technology Conference & Exhibition


Under the theme “Driving Customs performance with data and technology in the changing landscape of global trade”, the Technology Conference is aimed at exploring technology-supported solutions enabling Customs to operate in a fully digital environment and create an operating model that captures and exploits data from across the trade ecosystem.
