The B2B LOCO Workshop and Brokerage event (BE) under the title
"Transport and logistics SMEs: Cooperation and competition"
were
devoted not only to transport and logistics enterprises but to
the other, mainly manufacturing and retail enterprises having
substantial transport and logistics needs. In the broader sense
Workshop and BE was useful to other stakeholders, like
transport and logistics associations, freight integrators and
state and local administration, all being involved in the
process of transportation and business system development and
performance. Workshop and BE focus were, understandably, on so
dominant number of uncoordinated truck carriers but in the same
time the players from all other modes of transport must not have been
excluded as the most efficient transportation supposes
integration across all included in transport and logistics
services production. |
|
The objective of the Workshop and BE was to present to
participants the current and future transportation market across
EU in the light of competition and cooperation between SMEs
primarily on the base of the results of the newest EU Framework
Programme projects. That way FP projects will come closer to
SMEs having no time to study projects’ deliverables and in the
same time giving additional motives to the SMEs to participate
in the preparation and execution of new FP projects together
with other firms and RTD community. |
