In the Open Innovation Challenge (OIC) we are looking for cost-effective solutions that help to „revolutionise“ the existing transport market. The aim is to demonstrate ideas on how multimodal transports of part loads of different products/goods on inland waterways are possible. Agricultural products are currently only transported in bulk on inland waterways in quantities of over 1,000 tons. Smaller quantities are transported by rail or – primarily – by truck. We are looking for cost-effective solutions that help to “revolutionize” the existing transport market. The aim is to demonstrate ideas on how multimodal transports of part loads of different goods (bulk goods and general cargo – also palletized) on inland waterways are possible.

The Open Innovation Challenge is carried out within MultiRELOAD. MultiRELOAD is an European cooperation for the development of innovative inland port solutions for efficient, effective and sustainable multimodality. It enhances the collaboration between different freight nodes in Europe to jointly test innovations and create favourable market conditions for multimodal freight transport solutions. To this end, MultiRELOAD will demonstrate solutions in three Innovation Areas with specific aims by 2025, mirroring the measures of the EU’s Smart Mobility Strategy
