It's always beneficial to have partners that are aligned in values and collaborative in working towards the same direction.
Great to sit down with Zak Brown, CEO of our partner McLaren Racing Racing to discuss best practices for brands looking to enter the sports partnerships arena. #DPWorldxMcLarenF1 #SmartLogisticsAtEveryTurn
Perth will always have a special place in my heart. I remembered watching my first footie game 20 years ago as a young, impressionable uni student. 20 years on, to be part of a partnership that intersects between sports, community, and what I do as a day job is incredible. To be involved in a partnership that isn’t self-serving but focused on enabling communities in such a tangible way is meanitnful. Blake Tierney Elena Papayorgioglu — thank you for leading the way and charting the way forward!

🏎️💨 Over the past few months, I've been deeply involved in planning and coordinating DP World's exciting activations for our partnership with McLaren at the upcoming Singapore Grand Prix! As DP World's Official Logistics Partner since 2023, our smart logistics solutions play a crucial role in streamlining McLaren Racing's vast and intricate supplier network. This partnership truly exemplifies how efficiency, clarity, and innovation can drive success, both on and off the track. I'm incredibly proud of what we've accomplished so far and can't wait to see our extensive partner programme with the McLaren Formula 1 Team come to life this week! 🏎️💨 #DPWorldxMcLarenF1 #SmartLogisticsAtEveryTurn
This past week, I had the incredible opportunity to experience our partnership with the Fremantle Dockers up close and personal. From the nail-biting highs and lows during Sunday’s clash with Port Adelaide to Tuesday’s media launch where we announced our elevated partnership with the club, and a special donation—one of our 40 ft shipping containers repurposed into a spectator shelter—it’s been nothing short of inspiring. There was also excitement around the AFLW season kicking-off this weekend. What stood out the most? The unwavering commitment to community from everyone that I met at the club, whether it’s the leadership team, the coaching staff, or the dedicated crew behind the scenes. The phrase "The Dockers are committed to the community" is a lived reality. And now, I’m proud to say I’ve officially joined the ranks of Dockers fans. "Freo Way To Go Hit Em Real Hard, Send Them Down Below Oh Freo Give em The Old Heave-Ho We Are The Freo Dockers" #DPWorldXFreo #ForeverFreo
Since 2023, we've been a multi-year Platinum Partner and Official Logistics Partner for both the AFL and AFLW teams of Fremantle Dockers. Today, DP World is excited to elevate our partnership to Premier Partner. To add to the momentous occasion, we transformed one of our 40 ft shipping containers into a spectator shelter for fans to enjoy watching the teams practice as the Club progresses with their state-of-the-art expansion project. As the AFLW season kicks off this weekend, we couldn't be more excited to cheer them on and provide a space for fans to show their support. The team's dedication and resilience have set a strong foundation for what promises to be an exciting season. We're honoured to support a club that values diversity, inclusion, and champions women in sport. I also wanted to congratulate the Fremantle Dockers AFL team on an incredible season - I'm already looking forward to 2025. As a long-standing fan of this team, I couldn't be more proud of their accomplishments. Both DP World and Fremantle Football Club are deeply committed to the local Fremantle community, and this will continue to be at the helm of our partnership alongside innovation and sustainability. Bring on 2025! https://lnkd.in/g7KWgZd9 #DPWorldXFreo #ForeverFreo
I've always been keen on how we can create community spaces through intentional placemaking that isn't just focused on generating revenue. It's inspiring to see the Singapore Land Authority (SLA) embracing this vision with their innovative use of state properties. From experiential retail and luxury event venues to inter-generational co-living and social impact hubs, these projects are not just about space utilization but about building vibrant, inclusive communities. Excited to witness these developments shaping the future of our urban landscape! 🚀 #CommunityBuilding #UrbanInnovation #Placemaking https://lnkd.in/gCqf5Yev
This is the fruit of labour by some of my colleagues who worked on this - Really amazing stuff!

Trade transforms lives by providing employment and creating prosperity. Earlier this year, I had the pleasure of visiting the Port of Batangas, and witnessed first-hand the incredible impact it is having in the Philippines. The port is a catalyst for growth, empowering farmers by facilitating faster movement of produce, enabling them to secure better prices and improve their livelihoods. It also strengthens the automotive industry by enabling Toyota to transport vehicles efficiently, stimulating growth in the sector. Our ferry terminal boosts tourism, benefiting the hospitality industry and creating job opportunities. And by boosting local employment and skills development opportunities, our port cultivates a skilled and educated Filipino workforce. At DP World, we connect people and move produce and goods seamlessly. We provide innovative solutions while caring deeply about people, nurturing our staff, and building strong relationships with local communities. Our strategic investments in people and technology are designed to positively impact families for generations, raising the standard of living and transforming lives.

Exciting times!
In a recent interview with Asia Cargo News, I reiterated DP World’s continued commitment to Asia Pacific (APAC), while maintaining cautious optimism for growth in the region. Within APAC, we are bolstering our capabilities across the supply chain, including freight forwarding, inland logistics and warehousing. Just last year, we made a significant investment to nearly double the warehousing capacity at the Yennora Distribution Centre in Australia. We are also developing innovative solutions to provide seamless services to our customers in APAC. The DP World Busan Logistics Centre is a great example. When it becomes fully operational in 2026, it will be integrated with our Korean subsidiaries’ freight handling solutions and transcontinental rail freight network. As we continue to expand into new markets, I look forward to the completion of more projects that will unlock the full potential for trade in the region.
