Champ Cargo Systems and Air Cargo Belgium have signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) for the development of an innovation roadmap of the air cargo industry.

Agreed for indefinite period, the MoU outlines that Champ will be the preferred partner in the roll-out and testing of any new technologies and innovation created in the roadmap – furthering the relationship with the organisation.

“Champ is thrilled to support Air Cargo Belgium’s innovation and sustainability steering group,” says Arnaud Lambert, CEO at Champ Cargosystems.

“The technologies and innovations born of this partnership will not only benefit our two organisations – but also, the Belgian air cargo community and the industry as a whole.”

In 2018, Champ joined Air Cargo Belgium, sharing its global air cargo IT insights as well as collaborating more closely with the members of the community.

“We look forward to the positive cooperation with CHAMP in developing new innovations in the industry,” said Geert Keirens, director at Air Cargo Belgium.

“In addition, the company will become a driving force in our Innovation & Sustainability Steering group.”
