Welcome to EFLE Rotterdam 2018!

EFLE 2018 will be hosted by Rotterdam University of Applied Sciences (RUAS) and will be held in Rotterdam from 9 until 12 October 2018. The overall topic will be “Innovations in Ports”. Several speakers from the port authority and innovative companies have already confirmed their contribution and there will also be excursions to the Port.

Research (sharing logistics)

As innovation is the keyword of EFLE 2018 we would especially like to welcome colleagues involved in research. During EFLE 2018 a poster session is organized where current status and outcomes of RUAS researches (i.e. in health care logistics, last mile distribution, construction logistics, synchromodality etc) are presented in an informal and interactive way.

We also would like to welcome contributions from other participants of EFLE for the poster session. Even if you are not directly involved in research we ask you to consider to give an overview of the research activities related to logistics as done by your university.

Education

This year we would also like to put a focus on the last E of the acronym EFLE, i.e. education. We intend to combine our collective in didactic skills with the latest developments in the field of logistics. Our goal is that all participants return home with fresh ideas about how to make logistics developments come alive in a (European) classroom setting.
