Most of the leading consulting firms have recently issued studies about the expected fundamental disruption of the logistics market. The reasoning is simple. The logistics market is one of the biggest markets at all, accounting for nothing less than one trillion € in Europe alone. It outstands the automotive market (600 billion € in Europe) and is ten times bigger than the advertising market (100 billion Euros in Europe).
And the logistics market is, in digital terms, completely under-developed. In a highly-fragmented market structure, shippers, freight forwarders and transport companies work mostly like they did fifteen years ago, with telephone, fax and email in their daily routine. Prices are intransparent and workflows broken up by manual interfaces. Thousands of intermediaries try to organize non-standardized processes. A paradise for digital startups.
And the timing seems just right. The industry is very traditional with many family owned businesses not known for their thrive for innovation. But today, technology has become so simple to use that even a truck driver can handle a mobile application on his smart phone. And the digital startups promise to save time and money. Who could resist?
One thing seems clear. The market opportunity is so big that any of the promising logistic startups can be the next European unicorn if it reaches a market leader position. This is why Schickler has created in its incubator the road transportation startup Cargonexx in 2016. One and a half years later, Cargonexx has already registered 2,500 carriers and transported more than 20,000 tons which make it the most promising road transportation startup in Germany. But there are more promising logistics startups to watch in Europe. We have gathered a list of ten logistics startups you should know if you are interested in this market. This list does not claim to be exhaustive but it gives a good overview of the fast-developing world of logistic startups.

Hybrid Logistic Automation according to Actemium and Ingram Micro. Integrating best-of-breed logistic automation projects versus large-scale logistic automation.
The document discusses innovations in container terminals and argues that while investments have been made in hardware, more attention needs to be paid to "soft infrastructure" like terminal operating systems (TOS). It notes that many TOS are outdated and were developed internally over 10 years ago. Implementing a modern TOS can improve processes, increase volumes without additional resources, and reduce costs through factors like improved staff efficiency, reduced maintenance and fuel costs, and environmental benefits. The key is taking a holistic view of the business to achieve synergies and run a modern, innovative terminal.
This document discusses using high performance computing (HPC) capabilities in the cloud for simulation and analytics. It defines HPC as allowing for solving complex problems through massively parallel simulations, but notes it is expensive and knowledge-intensive. Cloud computing allows scaling resources on demand and paying only for what is used, but was traditionally not suited for HPC. The document outlines challenges of integrating HPC and cloud capabilities and provides three examples of application experiments, including using cloud-based design to increase renewable energy production, predicting drug targets and side effects in medicine, and optimizing microchip placement to free up space on a chip.
The document summarizes the sCorPiuS project, which aims to create a European roadmap for cyber-physical systems in manufacturing. It conducted interviews and workshops with experts to understand the state of practice and key challenges. It identified 6 clusters of breakthroughs and obstacles. The gap analysis found issues like uncertain ROI of new business models, communication problems between new and old systems, and managing legacy technologies. The roadmap will provide recommendations to address both technical and soft aspects to support adoption of CPS in European manufacturing.

Urban logistics activities are expected to grow by 8% a year in Europe through to 2030. Deliveries of goods already account for 20% of all traffic and for 30% of pollution in our cities, and flows are continuing to increase.
As our society comes to demand ever more immediacy, deliveries in urban areas present a major and increasingly complex challenge for logistics actors: while some consumers prefer more eco-friendly deliveries, others wish to support their local shops, deliveries in urban areas contribute to traffic jams, pollution and noise disturbance, and the COVID-19 pandemic has given a boost to online shopping.
Solutions to the economic and environmental challenges of urban logistics include investments in new technologies, such as artificial intelligence or blockchain, enhanced collaboration between the various actors in the ecosystem, private and public alike, and reflection on the organization of logistics facilities.

Dr. Jan Vincent Jordan, on behalf of RWTH Aachen, introduced CISUFLO as potential best practices on how digitalisation supports sustainability and on how SMEs can be supported in digitalization (with a focus on RWTH Aachen “Systemic Transition Support Tool”). During the workshop the DG CNECT presented the concept of the Digital Product Passport and DG RTD explained the “Research & Innovation for Sustainable and Circular Textiles”. The EC’s priority on the sustainability and circular economy underlines once again how important it is that CISUFLO is working in this direction to lead the flooring sector in Europe towards the circular economy.

Synchromodal Transport - Opportunities for entrepreneurs Kees Verweij
This document discusses opportunities for entrepreneurs in synchromodal transport in Northwestern Europe. Synchromodality involves supply chain management where logistics service providers make modality decisions to increase flexibility and robustness. It allows combining inland waterway, shortsea, and rail volumes to lower costs and improve service and sustainability. Shippers delegate modality decisions to logistics service providers. Leading companies in the Netherlands have developed synchromodal networks starting from maritime volumes and now including continental volumes. The document outlines several business cases and lessons learned from implementing synchromodal transport in 2014. It also discusses opportunities for logistics service providers and SMEs to develop synchromodal network capabilities in Northwestern Europe.

Impact on logistics labor
An Amazon order picker walks about
18 km per shift and picks an order every 33
seconds (112 picks/hour)
In combination with a robot, the order picker can
pick orders 2x as much (230 picks/hour)

grown in 2014-2017, even though the
number of robots has increased from 1,400

Calculation impacts robotics on labor in DC’s
Buck Consultants International, 2017 17
The Netherlands and NR Westphalia:
About 3,000 warehouses larger than 10.000 m2
Robotics in 60% of warehouses until 2030: 10% front runners and 30%
laggards
Savings potential: between 40-90% for 4 types of warehouse
Numbers of job lost to robotics in the warehouse: about 70,000 jobs, or about
45-50 per warehouse in 2030
However:
Autonomous increase of distribution activities between now and 2030: at least
+2 million m2 of warehouses larger than 10,000 m2 build each year
Shortages on the logistics labor market will increase in the Netherlands and
NR Westphalia until 2030
Conclusion: It looks like the rise of robotics will overall not take logistics
jobs away, but be necessary to accommodate growth of the sector
