What’s happening? How does it happen?<br />

Start port is a start-up incubator located in the<br />

Duisburg port, which wants to enhance creative<br />

innovation culture and promote innovations in the<br />

logistics and supply chain areas. The platform is establishing<br />

a collaboration between the start-ups, the<br />

Duisport authority and the companies located in the<br />

harbor, in order to develop forward-looking innovative<br />

ideas for the future development of the logistic<br />

hub of Duisburg. The company is developing a oneyear<br />

accelerator program in which the start-up can<br />

be evolved in a marketable product. They are providing<br />

access to the already existing network of potential<br />

costumers or of potential collaborator from<br />

the logistic and industrial field.<br />

Why is this an interesting circular initiative for<br />

circular harbours?
