Open Innovation Challenge: MultiRELOAD - Transportation Solutions Wanted

Multireload

The search is on for cost-effective ideas to change the transport market. How to transport different types of goods, bulk and general cargo - also on pallets, on inland waterways? Your chance to bring your idea and develop a business model.

Due to the pandemic and the conflict in Ukraine, the cost of renting transport equipment has risen sharply. Although the waterway mode of transport has enough free capacity and is environmentally friendly, small customers cannot use this transport option.
