The SeaRates team attended Valencia Digital Summit 2025 (VDS25), one of Europe's premier technology and innovation events, held on October 22-23, 2025, in the magnificent City of Arts and Sciences in Valencia, Spain.
This year's summit brought together over 15,000 participants, 1,500 startups, and 500 industry leaders who shared a common goal: to shape the digital future in smarter, more sustainable, and more connected ways.
For SeaRates, this event was a key opportunity to show the world how our logistics technology ecosystem helps businesses digitize their supply chains, thereby increasing efficiency worldwide.
Highlights of the event
During the two-day conference, the brightest minds in artificial intelligence, supply chains, Industry 5.0, and green technology engaged in discussions. The main topics of conversation were digital transformation, sustainable development, and the future of logistics, which perfectly align with SeaRates' vision of a unified digital ecosystem for global trade.
Our team participated in networking, startup exhibitions, and technical discussions, where we met with partners and other innovators who share our interest in transforming logistics.
It was impressive to see the combination of technology, creativity, and sustainability bringing real innovation to the logistics sector and other industries. And being part of such an innovative community gives us the feeling that digital logistics is not just the future, but the reality of today.

SeaRates’ mission on the global stage
VDS25 was an event where we demonstrated how SeaRates combines innovation and logistics with digital tools that simplify global shipping.
We present our main solutions:
- Logistics Explorer for freight calculation and real-time booking;
- Route Planner for optimizing linear and multimodal routes;
- Ship Schedules for sailing timeline management;
- and Tracking System — an application for monitoring of all cargo types.
All these solutions and much more within the SeaRates ecosystem are real-world proofs that technology will make the work of logisticians easier and address even the most complicated challenges.
Main points from VDS25
The digital transformation is not an option anymore.
The companies that accept being automated, having data visible, and making use of smart integrations will acquire the flexibility to not just survive but even thrive in the uncertain global markets.
Innovation is the child of sustainability.
Although the road to having a sustainable product is still long, the speakers highlighted the need for green logistics solutions.
Working together is a path to growth.
The VDS25 event served as a reminder that the most powerful breakthroughs are through alliances — between freight forwarders, tech innovators, logistics providers, and forward-thinking enterprises.
