Smart port innovation portal launch (webinar)

Did you know that the paper trail represents 11% of the value of container trade? Or that the value of global maritime transportation amounts to upwards of 300 billion €? It's safe to say the potential for digital and platform innovation in the industry is huge!

This webinar will introduce you to an innovation and ideation portal matching the most extensive selection of port innovation challenges with the European IoT and data science development community.

To accelerate the development of a thriving market for smart port applications, this portal is offered for free with the support of Europe's Interreg 2 Seas program. It aims to be the leading platform for ideas exchange and the generation of innovation consortia for the development of digital solutions that help ports become smarter in terms of:

• Optimized logistics chains
• Synchromodality
• Better environmental and energy performance
• Safer and more secure operations

As an introduction to the portal, this webinar will tell you more about how you can engage in the innovation exchange, show some of the challenges already on the portal and how the challenges or ideas that generate the most interest can be picked up for hackathons, group tenders, showcase events, conferences and investor pitching events.

The webinar is free of charge and you can invite others to join in.
