Knowledge is a key driver of innovation and growth and a key instrument for implementing the Sustainable Development Goals. The Ministry of Economy and Finance has been operating a knowledge sharing program (KSP) to meet the demand for knowledge-based cooperation using Korea’s development experience. Since the KSP was launched in 2004, Korea has conducted the KSP with over 70 countries—serving as a leading source of knowledge sharing and contributing to the construction of common development and sustainable growth in the international community. The 2019/20 KSP project “Baku Port Operation Modernization Feasibility Study", which was promoted with Azerbaijan, examines the possible modernization and automation of the operations of the Port of Baku, the representative port of Azerbaijan. The Korea Development Institute (KDI), Korea Maritime Institute (KMI), and Total Soft Bank (TSB) jointly established the automation strategy. Moreover, the Azerbaijan government is devising a strategy to move away from its high dependence on the oil industry and to grow into a logistics hub in the Eurasian region by utilizing its geographic location. Accordingly, it aims to reduce costs by improving the port automation rate of Baku Port and to attract transshipment cargo between China and Europe by providing high-quality port services. The 2019/20 Azerbaijan KSP project was promoted to review the possibility of automation for the Baku Port and to help establish a strategy to become a Eurasian logistics hub. Therefore, Korean experts in the port management system and the Baku port officials share their experiences of constructing the port management system despite the COVID-19 pandemic, conduct joint research, and establish automation strategies to suit the national growth strategy. Through these efforts, this project has established an automation strategy for the Baku Port based on the development experience of the Busan Port in Korea. Accordingly, we first investigate and analyze the general status and volume of the Baku Port, present the implications for establishing a strategy through information exchange among stakeholders, and examine the cargo handling process by terminal. By comparing and analyzing the operating systems of the Baku Port and the Busan New Port, we identified problems and sought improvement measures. Finally, this study derived a phased implementation strategy and its expected effects to increase efficiency and build an automated terminal. The KSP project is expected to greatly expand the cooperative relationship between Korea and Azerbaijan in establishing an automation system for the port of Baku in the future, and we hope to contribute to advancing Azerbaijan’s Eurasian logistics hub. We would like to express our sincere gratitude to Professor Man-Hee Han, the Senior Advisor who was responsible for the success of the 2019/20 Azerbaijan KSP project. Moreover, we would like to send our appreciation to the three local experts—Kuhdayar Hasanli, Tural Aliyev, and Hidayat Hamidov—who advised on the project implementation in Azerbaijan. We also thank all the researchers at the Center for International Development (KDI) who continued to endeavor towards the successful project execution despite the difficulties of COVID-19. Lastly, we are especially grateful to the Baku Port officials for their interest and support in establishing the automation strategy, and we hope that the cooperative relationship will continue in the future.
