CMA CGM plans to create a start-up incubator in its home town of Marseilles as it looks to pursue its digital strategy.

Chief Executive Rodolphe Saade unveiled the plans at the Salon des Entrepreneurs (trade fair) in Marseilles on Wednesday.

“With this project, CMA CGM wishes to play a leading role not only in the economic development of the territory but also in the development of start-ups,” said Saade.
