Company mission

To solve the hardest problems in container shipping.

Our take

Founded in 2017, Copenhagen-based Portchain is a provider of cloud-based AI planning tools for container terminals and carriers, empowering them to collaborate, analyse and design operation plans to get container vessels through ports with more efficiency.

After adding nine new container terminals to its customer base in 2021, Portchain is well positioned for further growth as it has also received funding which will fund the development of its AI systems for quayside planning and optimisation.
