Innovation

The Ports 4.0 capital fund is the corporate open innovation model adopted by Puertos del Estado and Spanish Port Authorities to attract, support, and facilitate the application of talent and entrepreneurship to the public and private Spanish logistics-port sector within the context of the 4th industrial revolution.

The main objective of the Fund is to actively promote and incorporate disruptive or incremental innovation as a key element of competitiveness, efficiency, sustainability, safety, and protection in the Spanish logistics-port sector, both public and private, to facilitate its transition to the 4.0 economy.

Ports 4.0 encourages the creation or consolidation of a network of emerging companies (Startups), spin-offs, or new lines of business in the technological field within existing companies that develop innovative products, services, or processes for the port logistics sector with a market orientation.

All information about the Fund, as well as the call calendar and registrations, is available on the specific Ports 4.0 website.
