Mercator, a Dubai-based business technology provider and part of the Emirates Group, recently held its first cargo event to showcase its latest cargo innovation, SkyChain. The organisers welcomed more than ninety delegates from more than thirty airlines to the event, which included speeches, panel discussions, a tour of Emirates SkyCargo's terminal and SkyChain product demonstrations. At the heart of the conference were discussions on the benefits of implementing Iata's e-freight initiative. Dubai is currently the only e-freight compliant cargo hub in the Middle East.
