In the past few decades, the logistics sector has experienced revolutionary shifts in technologies, business models, policies and legislation, with outcomes of public funded R&I projects being a key facilitator.
To acknowledge the achievements and inspire the R&I community of the logistics sector, ALICE launched the Innovation Award in April 2021. The second award is focused on successful implementation cases stemming from R& I projects in urban logistics.
Implement Cases are concrete examples in which causal links between public R&I funding and technology, organizational or process innovation in a specific logistics area can be established.
The ALICE Logistics Innovation Award evaluates all collected Implementation Cases. The evaluation is done by the selection based on three criteria: i) Operational, social and market impacts; ii) Influence on policy; 3) Scalability and growth potential.
