"I am both happy and excited about the opportunity to be able to study the maritime sector from a port perspective. My overall subject is business development in ports and I will be seeking a better understanding of the business model and how the different components influence value in the context of ports,” says Cheryl Basil Sequeira.  “I will also be investigating the interaction between ports and other maritime actors and, among other, seeking to answer questions such as: How do shipping ports create value by (re)configuring their integration with other maritime actors and the business model innovation of these actors?”
