Anshumali Dwivedi, Port of Algoma CEO, was the keynote speaker during the 126th annual general meeting of the Sault Ste. Marie Chamber of Commerce on 7 October 2015 where he spoke about the opportunities for business, the community, Northern Ontario, etc.
As port CEO, Dwivedi advocated the collective vision of redeveloping the Port of Algoma into a state-of-the-art commercially accessible port with a 1.4 kilometer dock area and its reflection in the creation of new jobs.
He went on to speak about the port’s first phase, which was launched last year with the help of funding from all three levels of government and Essar Steel Algoma consisted of planning and design of the project, environmental assessment and consultation with First Nations communities. The Port of Algoma is ‘now’ and shouldn’t be referred to as a ‘future project’ he stated enthusiastically as he addressed the audience.
Dwivedi holds an MBA from IIFT in New Delhi, and an honours degree in economics from Delhi University. Prior to his current assignment, he was the Head of Business Development and Investor Relations for Essar Ports Ltd. in India.
Dwivedi has extensive experience in the development of new ports, modernization programs, and in offshore oil and gas drilling and shipping. He was a part of the core team involved with setting up Essar’s port business, and growing it into one of the larger port companies in India.
