The emerging interface of digital innovation and sustainability in transport
Ecosystems aiding visibility and transparency are being piloted by trade and transport actors1 to monitor and mitigate the growing disruptions and sustainability concerns in international supply chains. However, scaling such ecosystems is difficult as many actors are unwilling to cooperate and share data, often due to lack of mutual trust.2
Faced with this situation, this article considers the emerging interface of digital innovation and sustainability in transport with particular focus on ecosystem governance. The aim of the article is to examine ways in which trust may be built through shared governance.
