ONE partners with The University of Tokyo on Social Cooperation Program

Ocean Network Express (ONE) launches a Social Cooperation Program, “Container Management Science” in collaboration with Japan’s School of Engineering at The University of Tokyo.

The program, which commenced in April, marks a significant step towards addressing the increasingly complex and diverse challenges facing the modern container shipping industry from a comprehensive and interdisciplinary perspective.

The program will bring together experts from various academic fields, aiming to foster long-term, industry-academia collaborations to develop sustainable and future-oriented container shipping.

Social Cooperation Programs serve as a collaborative platform that enables private companies, research institutions, and universities to work together on common issues of public interest, leveraging their respective expertise and insights.

ONE and The University of Tokyo have established this social cooperation program to enhance collaboration between industry and academia while integrating knowledge across diverse academic fields as well.

By participating in this program, ONE will be able to realize sustainable container transportation by advancing innovation in response to increasingly complex challenges including the economics of container shipping (operational and management optimization), resilience (risk management, BCP), and decarbonization. Furthermore, the Japanese liner operator aims to cultivate and produce global human resources capable of understanding and evaluating highly socially demanded technologies related to the container shipping industry and integrating them into business operations.

  • Duration: 1 April, 2024~31 March 2027 (3 years)
