A new center for shipping and logistics to be opened in Marseille
The city of Marseille, led by mayor Benoît Payan, will welcome TANGRAM, a new center for generating brand new ideas and solutions and converting them into impactful projects with the support from highly talented individuals.
This center is planned to be opened under the CMA CGM Group, a French container transportation and shipping company, and the 3rd largest container shipping company in the world. Their idea is to transform the shipping and logistics sectors for the future by addressing the core challenges of performance, energy transition and global trade through this new center, which is named after a Chinese puzzle.
The center will also feature a training hub occupying more than 2,500 m2, as well as an innovation hub and an Events Center, a restaurant facility and a café.
These projects will be great steps towards a greener future because the aim of TANGRAM center is to find the solutions which are needed to address global challenges.
“This CMA CGM TANGRAM academy will be the starting point of a wonderful human adventure based on a pioneering and innovative spirit in favor of a greener and bluer society, which fits perfectly with our municipal project. This school has been designed to raise awareness among young people of Marseille to sea-related professions and the defense of our marine and underwater heritage. It will be the meeting point for all those who have the desire to transform their sector of activity. In a few months, in a few years, we will see dozens of students and professionals who will have the unique opportunity to join TANGRAM”, said mayor of Marseille Benoît Payan.
