El Comité de Innovación de Valenciaport, led by the Fundación Valenciaport, has selected two key projects for 2026 aimed at optimizing the response to operational disruptions and standardize the calculation of the carbon footprint in international logistics chains.
Promoting collaborative innovation in the port ecosystem
During a recent Prioritization WorkshopThe committee members evaluated a shortlist of 12 proposals submitted by companies within the sector. The aim of this process is to strengthen the competitiveness of the Valencian venue through... public-private partnership and the use of funding European, national and regional.
The final selection was based on criteria of technical feasibility, impact on efficiency and the mandatory participation of at least three actors in the logistics and port ecosystem. These initiatives seek to consolidate Valencia as an advanced and sustainable logistics hub within the framework of global trade.
Projects selected for the 2026 fiscal year
The two initiatives that will shape the innovation agenda are:
- Coordinated response to disruptions: A comprehensive solution designed for the monitoring, prediction and decision making in the event of incidents that affect the normal flow of goods.
- Environmental traceability: A collaborative platform for calculating and communicating the CO2 footprint in door-to-door logistics chains, facilitating transparency in transport.
