On 1 December 2023, LSCM staff attended the ‘Deep Sea Expedition Open Day & Exhibition’ with a valuable tour to the “Shen Kuo Research Vessel” at Ocean Terminal, Tsim Sha Tsui. The tour provided a unique opportunity to witness scientific exploration firsthand and was fascinating to see the cutting-edge equipment and technology used by the researchers to study marine life and the ocean ecosystem. Colleagues are impressed by the dedication and passion of the scientists on board, who were eager to share their work and answers to questions. It was truly inspiring to see their commitment to understanding and preserving the oceans. The crew members were friendly to every visitor to ensure that everyone had a great experience. Such an event was well-organized and smoothly run. The “Shen Kuo Research Vessel” tour gave a deeper appreciation for the wonders of the ocean and the importance of scientific research. It was a truly eye-opening experience which is worthy to anyone interested in the mysteries of the deep sea. An unforgettable experience for us on marine research.

In this year’s Asian Logistics, Maritime and Aviation Conference (ALMAC) organised by Hong Kong Trade Development Council (HKTDC), LSCM again partnered with HKTDC to organise the LSCM Maritime Summit 2023 on 21 November. With the theme of "Charting the Course: The Power of Digitalisation for Hong Kong to Build a Smarter Shipping Hub", the speakers’ presentations and discussion centered around the development of Smart Port and logistics technology. At the Summit, LSCM signed a MoU with COSCO Shipping and The Chamber of Hong Kong Logistics Industry (CHKLI) to strengthen the collaboration among the three organisations in the development of Smart Port. LSCM also showcased a series of logistics technologies developed by the Centre at the ALMAC, encouraging the industry to adopt innovative technologies to enhance efficiency and productivity. The showcased technologies included the award-winning Electronic Power Assist Trolley System, Cold Chain Robot, Tele-Control Warehouse Stackers Using 5G, as well as the e-Smart Port Platform. 

「Green Supply Chain – How E-Commerce Logistics Sees the Future」由香港电商联会及香港电子商贸物流协会携手于举办，而LSCM行政总裁黄广扬先生获邀成为嘉宾讲者之一，并在席上就「Maximizing live-streaming and social commerce to create impact」的议题，与其一众嘉宾讲者分享及交流意见。

LSCM刚与日本的Mitsui O.S.K. Lines Limited共同签署合作备忘录，此为智慧港口管理平台研发项目的一个重要的里程碑，双方将就技术研发及业务经验互相交流，紧密合作，以促进物流行业数码化。

一众香港物流协会会员于2023年5月18日到访LSCM，由LSCM团队向他们介绍一系列中心研发的技术，包括电动手推车系统、自动导航搬运车、应用于中医院之 AIoT 中药配送系统、5G遥控仓库电动堆高车、及虚拟实境技术等。

第48届日内瓦国际发明展于2023年4月26至30日举行。 LSCM获得一金一银四铜佳绩，当中电动手推车系统获得金奖，而应用于道路收费系统之组合式无线射频标签则获得银奖。获得铜奖的四项技术包括自动混凝土砖测试系统、应用于中医院的AIoT中药配送系统、应用于改善交通流量的车辆侦测及警报系统，以及应用人工智能视觉技术的热能山火侦测。再次于日内瓦国际发明展获奖对于LSCM团队是很大的鼓舞，我们将继续努力研发更多不同技术，以促进各行业的发展。
