Supply Chain Innovation
Supply Chain Innovation Innovation within the Logistics Sector relates to a great extent to the updating and improvement of services and processes. The logistics chain used to be linear. Today there are more and more circular alliances being formed in which management is also about value creation. Co-creation and multidisciplinary collaboration play a crucial role within logistics chains. Our knowledge of logistics, innovative transportation concepts and chain management contribute to the success of Dutch companies and to foreign companies wishing to set up in our country. This makes knowledge of logistics into a valuable export product. This provides (often high-level) jobs, including in Zeeland. So it is important to continue to set the pace in the field of logistics. The Supply Chain Innovation research group carries out practically-orientated research into sustainable and innovative supply chains in port and industrial logistics and the flows derived from them with the aim of maintaining or improving the position of national and international chains.
