Why Programmable Connectivity Is the Engine Behind Smarter Transportation

The transportation and logistics industries are moving fast, but the next big leap in efficiency, safety, and automation won’t come from vehicles alone. It’ll come from the networks that connect them, and more specifically, the Network APIs that make those networks programmable and responsive.

In this dynamic panel, joins transportation and connectivity experts along with Nokia to explore how Network APIs are redefining the movement of goods, machines, and people. We’ll unpack critical use cases where APIs aren't just useful, they're essential:

• Remote Operations: enabling safe, real-time control of vehicles and machinery in ports, construction zones, and industrial sites through low-latency connectivity

• Fleet Management: optimizing routes, tracking connectivity status, and enabling predictive maintenance using real-time network insights

• Reliable Asset and Vehicle Location: vital for indoor facilities, dense cities, and multimodal handoffs where standard GPS falls short

• Connected Transport Services: unlocking better customer experiences with context-aware data, network conditions, and location-based automation

Whether you run a delivery fleet, operate industrial equipment, or build digital logistics platforms, this session will show why Network APIs are the backbone of the next-generation transport ecosystem.
