And then, of course, they want to have that underlying layer of quality for the machine learning or the AI that needs good data for the models to have good outcomes.

And I think this is currently a process where we're in where a lot of people are looking at data, but they're realizing, oh, my data is not as good as I anticipated, right? That's also a learning journey Hapag-Lloyd made through the IoT process.

We also found out, hey, some addresses that we have, even in our master data catalog, are not the addresses that are the actual addresses right now.

And we are getting a lot of addresses from our customers and say, oh, the delivery of this container is ABC Street.

So thank you.

So I do approach this from a shipper's perspective.

What do shippers need to know when they enter into this visibility market? And to be honest, Karsten and Hapag-Lloyd have figured it out.

I didn't need to chime in.

It represents the restoration of an important source of foreign currency, while shorter routes benefit global trade.

Saudi Arabia, Turkey, and Pakistan engage Iran in new regional security talks.

Senior representatives from Saudi Arabia, Turkey, and Pakistan are engaging Iran in security consultations aimed at reducing regional tensions surrounding the Strait of Hormuz.

Weekly container traffic through the canal has climbed above half of pre-crisis levels for the first time since the disruptions began.

Major lines including Maersk, Hapag-Lloyd, CMA-CGM, and MSC are restoring select services, and the canal itself is operating normally.

but the picture changes once vessels leave Egyptian waters.

The southern Red Sea and the Bab al-Mandeb Strait remain high-risk zones.

So as I said before, a lot of people have come into Havana from the rest of the country looking for sustenance because there's nothing where they live, and it's a systematic genocide.

Why? Because the two biggest shipping companies, Hapag-Lloyd being one of them and a British one, they both have said, "We will not ship anymore to Cuba, and we're gonna, you know, direct our work elsewhere." So that's why when you hear people say 7,000 shipping containers full of medicine, food, supplies are not getting into the island, and these were desperately needed to-

Well, what's their reason for not...

What's the-- I'm sorry, Gloria, for interrupting.

I'm from the Baltic Sea coast.

My father was a sailor on Hapag-Lloyd ships, um, which I never thought would be relevant again in my career.

Um, [laughs] I moved on to study computer science, um, and, uh, was sort of in the startup world, uh, for quite a few years.

In 2015, um, I ended up being a co-founder at FORTO, which is a, um, next generation or, like, um, tech-enabled freight forwarder, um, where the idea was, um, I think it's known in the industry to, to say, "Okay, we will use technology to significantly digitalize, um, end-to-end processes in freight forwarding." Um, and from end-to-end digitalization, automation, um, the hypothesis was, would come a significant increase in the ability to serve customers well, great insights, great data quality, and which, which, which would drive retention, a higher productivity of cost, but also be able to do better revenue management.
