1st International Cluster Workshop
Date: 21st and 22nd June 2012
Location: ABN-AMRO, Gustav Mahlerlaan 10, 1082 PP Amsterdam, Netherlands
How to discover a best practice related to Urban freight, Green logistics, Co-modality and eFreight? How to learn from industrial, city or administration cases? These issues were at the centre of interactive discussions of more than 60 delegates at the BESTFACT 1st international cluster workshop „Eco-efficient Solutions in Freight Transport Chains“. High level speakers from quite different fields related to freight transport showed that a very good balance of transport, spatial planning, economy and environment will be needed as a contribution to the common goal „minimization of the number of freight movements and their distances“ delivering benefits to the whole European society.
