The three-day event focuses on trends in the global postal

dozens of countries and representatives from renowned companies are

systems in the context of modern trends.
Vice President of the International Business Development and
Automation Systems Department at Japan’s Toshiba Corporation
Yuichiro Ishibashi shared his thoughts on Azerbaijan’s
digitalization strategy and postal system.
“The key point I have heard is that the Azerbaijani government
has developed strategic documents regarding digitalization and the
digital economy. For example, state services are provided through
digital platforms, allowing people easy access to services through
these applications. This is a very important step, meaning that the
Azerbaijani people are well-versed in new and digital
technologies.
At the same time, Azerbaijan Post – the national postal operator
of the country – has a rich historical heritage and a specific
business model. However, it does not limit its activities to
traditional postal services alone; it strives to develop delivery
services by collaborating with international e-commerce platforms.
Azerbaijan Post is also interested in applying new and digital
technologies and demonstrates a positive approach in this
field.
Overall, Azerbaijan is developing very rapidly. There is a
noticeable interest in new technologies in the country, along with
a positive approach towards improving services and the quality of
life,” the Japanese guest added.
