Sustainable mobility and logistics

Description

Transport is becoming more and more significant in the context of globalization. On the one hand it is related to the trade and cargo flows, on the other hand is concerned with increasing people’s mobility. Smart Continent support European kind of thinking that research is needed to improve and demonstrate at a European scale the effectiveness and efficiency of integrated smart mobility solutions based on sustainable innovations.

Smart, green and integrated transport policy is our priority topic. We participate actively in research and innovation projects as well as in coordination and support actions in Horizon 2020. Our key focus area is logistics and urban mobility. We work closely with local public authorities by transferring knowledge and experience from more developed regions. We shape solutions and tools which in efficient manner helps to change behaviour of transport users. Also we contribute to perception of mobility as a service (MaaS) for transport planners. Smart Continent is proud to be partners in projects CIVITAS-PORTIS, CIVITAS-SUITS, METPEX, AP2050+ and cooperate with the leading transport institutes and universities in Europe.
