Reflections from ECTRI Webinar: Exploring Decentralised Technical Intelligence (DTI) – the KnowlEdge project

On July 26, 2024, the ECTRI Thematic Group on Economics & Policy hosted an engaging webinar featuring Stefan Walter from the Technical Research Centre of Finland (VTT).

He delved into the knowlEdge project (2021 – 2024), highlighting the transformative potential of Decentralised Technical Intelligence (DTI) in manufacturing and supply chain operations. The webinar showcased how DTI, by enabling real-time, decentralized decision-making through AI and machine learning, can significantly impact transport economics. The findings pointed to substantial cost reductions, improved service quality, and enhanced environmental sustainability within transport and logistics networks.

This innovative approach not only optimizes operations but also paves the way for smarter, data-driven infrastructure investments, aligning transport networks with actual demand and boosting overall economic efficiency.
