The Moscow CCI (MCCI) pays great attention to the development of innovative technologies, the creation of a system of objective assessment and motivation for the implementation of technologies in daily industrial decisions, as well as decisions made in the service sector. We keep a close eye on the methods and support systems that are used abroad to support startups and innovative technologies. MCCI on an ongoing basis holds consultations with the Moscow city government on the development and implementation of new forms of subsidies and support for innovative companies. MCCI closely cooperates with the Innovation Agency of Moscow, with organizations aimed at issues related to the development of industry and the development of modern technologies, participates in work to support both residents of technoparks and the technoparks themselves. Within the framework of cooperation with the Netherlands, MCCI is interested in the experience of the Dutch side in supporting innovations, in addition to this, the experience and possibilities of organizing cooperation between technoparks and technopolises of the Netherlands and Moscow is interesting. We would like to pay special attention to the possibility of joint developments/projects and their implementation in the Netherlands, Moscow and throughout Russia. We believe that it is fundamentally important to establish close contacts between expert groups in various sectors, especially in terms of the green economy. Obviously, the issues of a green economy are currently a priority area for the entire world economy. At the same time, we proceed from the assumption that the development of green
economy sectors should offer adequate, and most importantly, effective solutions. They should have prospects for their development and further expansion, and not only be the result of scientific and technical experiments. We are very attentive to the fact of improving the ecology and the environment. At the same time, we believe that any activity involves the complexity and staged implementation. The Moscow Chamber of Commerce and Industry has created and continues to create a system of specialized examinations on various issues, incl. new startups. They are considered within the framework of sessions, during which a lively discussion takes place and proposals are developed. We have come up with an initiative for a system of international expertise for new startups. This issue is being discussed today within the framework of the Council of Chambers of Commerce and Industry "CX" (in which representatives of the Chambers of the largest metropolises of the world are constantly considering the issue of the participation of business and the CCI system in the development

of cities in terms of the implementation of infrastructure and social projects.) Innovation and social issues are very close to each other, because any innovation involves simplifying the technology in its implementation, as well as increasing the efficiency of use. That is why, we proceed from the fact that the more active international cooperation is and open interaction of both specialists and entrepreneurs takes place, the more benefits there will be for all of us on our small but beautiful planet. The Moscow Chamber of Commerce and Industry stands for support of business proposals, for an open dialogue and contacts to attract two-way investments, as well as for a more systematic and substantive approach with our partners in the Netherlands.

(G)OLD GREEN The coming year 2022 has been declared the 'International Year of Glass' by the UN. Declared to underline its scientific, economic and cultural role. Glass has a sustainable character, and is unnoticed everywhere in our daily use!
It
has always been easily recyclable in use and used as a storage product for centuries. Durable and an ancient innovative material!
Fragile, but durable in shelf life as a material ! Glass has never really left the consumer society, but there are other old innovations that are experiencing a revival in our current time. Sustainable solutions that have fallen out of favor in the past or have never even really been implemented are very common in the logistics sector, for example. In this edition of In-Me magazine we would like to pay attention to sustainable developments within the logistics and cargo sector. Transport is closely linked to all other
sectors, so not only important on its own. And sustainable solutions that already are existing in this sector for a long time are now being taken up more and more. Innovative developments from the past are given a new meaning, impulse or are completely redefined! Freight transport by electric rail is of course not new, but new routes can give a new impulse here. Just like electric cargo and road transport have a longer history than we would expect. And even the now muchdiscussed hyperloop has already gone through an experimental phase in the past! So, perhaps not new, but with many developments. That is why we like to give them a lot of attention in this 9th edition of the magazine.

C A R B O N N E U T R A L I T Y A NEW CHALLENGE FOR THE COUNTRY'S ELECTRIC POWER INDUSTRY
Yermentau Wind Power Plant in Akmola region, 45 MW of installed capacity
In December 2020, the President of the Republic of Kazakhstan, speaking at the summit on climate ambitions, dedicated to the 5th anniversary of the adoption of the Paris Climate Agreement, said that Kazakhstan planned to achieve carbon neutrality by 2060. In general, this task has become a global trend, which has been joined by almost all countries of the world. The European Union is committed to achieve carbon neutrality by 2050, and China has committed to reducing net GHG emissions to zero by 2060. The US rejoined the Paris Agreement in 2021 and announced that it would achieve zero emissions across the economy no later than 2050. In order to fulfill this task, the Government of the Republic of Kazakhstan was tasked to develop a Strategy to achieve carbon neutrality by 2060. The developed document was presented at international conference "Ways to achieve the goals of the Paris Agreement and carbon neutrality of Kazakhstan" held on October 13 this year with the participation of the President. This document sets out a comprehensive assessment of the changes and measures needed to adapt the national economy to
a climate-neutral model in the future. It is emphasized that achieving ambitious climate goals is a huge challenge for Kazakhstan and for the whole world. A significant reduction in greenhouse gas emissions requires fundamental changes in production and consumption models, a rapid and effective transition from non-ecological burning of fossil energy resources to carbon-free technologies, large-scale introduction of "green" innovations in industry, transport, construction, agriculture and forestry, and waste management.

In-Me magazine1919 In-Me magazine
It is no coincidence that, speaking to the country's business community at the VIII Congress of the National Chamber of Entrepreneurs of the Republic of Kazakhstan "Atameken" at the end of September this year, the President outlined the issue of achieving carbon neutrality as the main point of his speech: "Kazakhstan is one of the most energy–intensive countries in the world, 70% of the energy balance is coal-fired generation. The importance of the oil and gas sector does not need to be explained to anyone. At the same time, being a responsible member of the world community, Kazakhstan has announced its commitment to achieve carbon neutrality by 2060. Obviously, this will require deep structural, technological and economic changes. Everyone will be affected by these changes." An important factor in this is the direction of Kazakhstan's exports, since fossil fuels and especially oil from Kazakhstan are mainly exported to OECD countries. At the same time, the European Union accounts for the largest share. And as you know, from January 1, 2023, the EU carbon border adjustment mechanism (CBAM) will begin to operate, which will gradually impose a carbon footprint tax on imported goods exceeding certain benchmarks and originating from countries with less ambitious climate policies and lower carbon prices. Thus, achieving carbon neutrality is a challenge for the entire economy of the country. In this case, the energy industry is at the forefront, where it is no secret that coal is the main source of energy. The share of greenhouse gas emissions from the use of coal in the country has practically not changed in 30 years, in 1990 it accounted for 65%, and in 2017 – 59% of all greenhouse gas emissions in the country. At the same time, we have 70% of electricity and 99% of heat produced by burning coal. The strategy of achieving carbon neutrality of
Kazakhstan until 2060 clearly sets the vector of strategic actions, taking it as an axiom that in the medium term, the withdrawal of coal generation is inevitable and the natural question of its replacement arises. This makes it possible to replace existing outdated carbon-intensive equipment and infrastructure with modern low-carbon and carbon-free technologies, such as gas-fired thermal power plants, at the initial stage, as well as the active and comprehensive introduction of renewable energy sources (RES). In other words, the Strategy concludes that decarbonization will be achieved by replacing existing worn-out equipment and infrastructure at the end of their economic life. In order to find solutions, the team of Strategy developers applied an analytical approach to assessing the transition to carbon neutrality, which is based on the use of a hybrid model consisting of three advanced, complex, interconnected economic and technological models (TIMES-KAZ, CGE-KAZ, SD-KAZ). At the same time, the models consider only 2 scenarios: the basic one is the lack of any technological or political changes to achieve carbon neutrality and the carbon neutrality scenario is when all economic policy measures are aimed at achieving the goal. According to the Strategy, the simulation results showed that in the carbon neutrality scenario, a steady decline in the share of coal generation is expected until its complete disappearance by 2055. In 2060, in the carbon neutrality scenario, solar energy will account for up to 46% of all electricity generation and 56% of renewable electricity, while wind energy will account for 33% and 40%, respectively. In addition, at the above-mentioned conference, the President announced an important indicator for development of renewable and alternative energy, the share of which will be 80% in the country's energy balance by 2060. In the long term, the use of RES will be accompanied by energy conservation systems (for example,
Turgusun Hydro Power Plant in East-Kazakhstan region, 24,99 MW of installed capacity
An important factor in this is the direction of Kazakhstan's exports, since fossil fuels and especially oil from Kazakhstan are mainly exported to OECD countries.
industrial-scale storage plants), which will allow regulating the supply of electricity and better integrating RES into the energy system. These numbers seem a bit surreal today. As specialists in the electric power industry, we also understand that the country will need basic generation. What will be the base-load generation: still coal, nuclear or gas turbine this is a separate issue, which I am sure will be hotly discussed in the near future at different levels. However, one thing is obvious, that the Strategy of achieving Carbon Neutrality until 2060 allows us to take a different look at the prospects for the development of our country, where renewable energy will play an important role in the structure of the energy system.
The strategy also gives a very correct message for foreign investors and domestic businesses. It is no coincidence that in the carbon neutrality scenario, almost 90% of investments will be directed to the renewable energy sector. And the most important thing that the Strategy of achieving Carbon Neutrality leads us to is that a future with a zero balance of greenhouse gas emissions by 2060 in Kazakhstan is technically possible and economically feasible. Achieving this goal will require profound structural changes in the entire economy and, in particular, a fundamental transformation of the energy sector.

Emissions s a v i n g underwater vehicle Saab, a world leader in underwater robotics, has agreed to sell 10 of its new electric underwater vehicles named ‘eWROV’ to leading marine robotics company, Ocean Infinity. Ocean Infinity and its partners plan to build a Marine Propulsion Test facility, with an integrated Ammonia Marine Propulsion System (AMPS). The test facility will demonstrate clean-fuel technology eventually capable of powering Ocean Infinity’s fleet, using an innovative ammonia based fuel cell system. This Ocean Infinity’s fleet, called ‘Armada’ consists out of autonomous underwater vehicles that has a focus on combining technology and sustainability. The eWROV (electric work remotely operated vehicles) from Saab will now be part of the Ocean Infinity Armada fleet!

alternatives and it also requires less human involvement and will play an important role in future autonomous vessel fleets. We are confident the eWROV will serve Ocean Infinity well,”
With the production of this electric watercraft, which can deliver the same overall performance as a 250 hp hydraulic vehicle, Saab Seaeye is one of the first companies to offer an underwater vehicle with less impact on the environment.
On the part of Ocean Infinity, Dan Hook, Chief Technology Officer adds: “Lessening the environmental impact of operations at sea is the main driver behind the development of Armada. The all-electric eWROV, in addition to our already lowemission vessels, will enable us to support our customers with infrastructure integrity projects in the most environmentally responsible way. The eWROVs will form an important part of our Armada architecture; through integration with our dynamic payload controller, we’ll be able to deploy and operate them anywhere in the world from our Remote Control Centres,”
Currently the Armada fleet of Ocean Infinity contained 15 robotic ships and with the eWROV they will develop the world’s largest fleet of non-crewed robotic vessels. Armada aims to be a forerunner in the maritime industry, providing sustainable services that deliver up to 90% emissions savings over a conventional underwater vessel with comparable offshore tasks.
This electric vehicle can deliver the same overall performance as a 250 hp hydraulic vehicle One of the features of the eWROV is that the electrical systems are not only more efficient, but also consume little or no oil, making the eWROV significantly more environmentally friendly than comparable hydraulic systems in this working class. Thanks to the development of Saab Seaeye so-called, intelligent iCON system architecture, the eWROV can work completely autonomously. Magnus Lewis-Olsson, Chairman of Saab UK states: “Ocean Infinity’s order is the largest in Saab Seaeye’s history and highlights the need for intelligent, adaptable and flexible underwater robotics. The eWROV is more efficient and cleaner than the hydraulic

The Spanish Zeleros based in Valencia
is a leading factor in the developments of hyperloop in Europe. The company is also developing advanced mobility solutions in port and airport automation, using the technologies and know-how applied in these sectors. In June 2021, Zeleros announced that it will start an EU project in collaboration with Poland's Magneto to build zero-emission freight forwarders for ports and hyperloops. Magneto specializes in the production of electric motors and is happy to share its knowledge to set up a pilot project with Zeleros that will consist of a 60-meter track that will allow demonstration under dynamic conditions.
The project aims to accelerate the Sustainable Electromagnetic Freight forwarding system invented by Zeleros. This innovative system consists of a fully automated system of guided electric vehicles that have the capacity to move containers in intra- and port-toback operations with zero greenhouse gas emissions and high reliability. source: Zeleros Hyperloop
The
Dutch Hardt Hyperloop, in collaboration with the Amsterdam University of Applied Sciences, investigated how hyperloop freight solutions could contribute to the sustainable and efficient delivery of the rapidly increasing number of parcel shipments. In July 2021, Hardt Hyperloop presented a new vision paper, concluding that hyperloop technology is a potential game changer for governments, retailers and thought leaders seeking sustainable freight solutions. Hardt Hyperloop bases its vision on the growing e-commerce sectors. Hardt therefore developed the 'Cargoloop' project, a hyperloop system aimed at transporting goods. The hyperloop system allows autonomous vehicles to be steered at speeds of up to 700 km/h through lowpressure pipes, enabling delivery across the European continent within hours. E-commerce stores and brand chains can thus serve customers throughout Europe
from a single distribution center. Cargoloop is now investigating the preconditions for a first Cargoloop pilot route. The findings are being published in October 2021. Cargoloop will then be tested and validated in 2023 at the European Hyperloop Center in Groningen. Preparations for the construction of this test center have already started. After completion of the tests, the system is expected to be ready for commercial use.

Another
player is DP World Cargospeed, a partnership between Virgin Hyperloop and DP World. The project encompasses an application for hyperloop-compatible freight systems. DP World Cargospeed systems should eventually be able to move cargo at top speeds of 1000 km/h, powered by Virgin Hyperloop One technology. These speeds make it ideal for time-sensitive goods, including fresh produce, medical supplies, electronics and more. It will expand freight transport capacity by connecting to existing modes of transport by road, rail, port and air. Virgin Group founder and chairman of Virgin Hyperloop One, Sir Richard Branson, said: “The global growth of e-commerce is driving a dramatic shift in both consumer and business behaviour. On-demand deliveries are a novelty today. Tomorrow it will be the expectation. DP World Cargospeed systems powered by Virgin Hyperloop One will enable ultra-fast, on-demand deliveries of
high-priority goods and will revolutionize logistics, support growth, and create thriving economic regions.” The Virgin Hyperloop One system which is the basis for DP World Cargospeed, is unique in that it doesn't have to be just for passengers or just for freight. It is intended that the system capacity will be fully utilized in an execution schedule that can support both cargo and passenger transport. According to Virgin hyperloop One, Cargospeed has major advantages in several areas. A hyperloop supply chain can help extend the shelf life of fresh produce and reduce quality loss by 25%, with the added benefit of reducing warehouse space requirements by 25% due to fast turnaround times.

On May 21, 2019, the Law "On the use of renewable energy sources" was adopted in Uzbekistan, which laid the necessary foundation for the development of the sector. Foreign investors have been attracted, many promising projects have been developed. In August 2021, the country's first solar photovoltaic station was launched in the Navoi region. Another such station will be commissioned next month in the Samarkand region.
In general, in 2022-2024, it is planned to build 10 solar and wind power plants with a total capacity of about 3 thousand megawatts at the expense of foreign direct investment in the amount of US $ 3 billion. At the recent international climate summit in Glasgow, Scotland, Uzbekistan announced its intention to reduce its specific greenhouse gas emissions per unit of gross domestic product by 35 percent by 2030. There is every reason for this. In particular, by 2026, the goal is to increase the total capacity of solar and wind power plants in the country to 8 thousand megawatts. Next year, it is planned to build 5 solar power plants with a total capacity of 900 megawatts in Khorezm, Bukhara, Kashkadarya, Namangan and Fergana
regions.
Organization of the production of components and materials necessary for the future construction of solar and wind power plants in Uzbekistan itself will reduce the cost of projects, as well as create a market for domestic enterprises. Qualified engineers and workers will be needed for high-quality operation of new power plants. In this regard, a special training center in the city of Navoi is to be established and university courses will be offered in line with modern requirements.

SUSTAINABLE CONNECTION
From Europe to the CIS region In October of this year the first freight train Shuttle left for its service from Rotterdam to Moscow. This makes it one of the forerunners in the renewed revival of freight transport by train.

In-Me magazine3737 In-Me magazine
According to information from the CBS (Netherlands Central Bureau for Statistics), 40 million tons of goods were transported by train within the Netherlands last year. That is 6.2 percent less than the year before. According to the CBS, this decrease was entirely due to the decrease in exports and throughputs on the Dutch rail by respectively 9.5 and 5.9 percent. The supply of goods by rail did increase slightly. However, with the new 'RotterdamMoscow Shuttle', a new sustainable connection has been inaugurated, which offers a new incentive for the transit and transport of goods by rail. On October 28, the first direct 'Rotterdam-Moscow Shuttle' departed from the Rotterdam RSC train terminal. With a capacity of 40 containers (80 TEU), mainly trade goods, this is a sustainable new connection. The service is an initiative of the Rotterdam-based Smart Container, in collaboration with their Russian parent company Ruscon. The opening of the corridor was celebrated with the presence of representatives from the Russian embassy as well as from Kazakhstan, Azerbaijan, Armenia and Belarus. Because this renewed connection is also a connection with the various CIS countries. At the presentation of the first <<Rotterdam - Moscow Shuttle>> the various embassies presented their innovative logistics and rail freight projects, which make the connection between Moscow and the other CIS countries even more attractive. According to development director Irina Birman “We are a young company, started in 2020. And we decided to step on this railway project because it is really a nice possibility to quickly step on the market”. “It is a connection between Rotterdam, Brest(Belarus) and Moscow, but the journey doesn't just stop in Moscow. There is a lot of possibilities from there to
go further into the CIS region. And we are happy that the RSC terminal in Rotterdam opened this gateway to us!” “With this train, we are already connected with Kazakhstan, Azerbaijan and Armenia. Last but not least of course Belarus, because this is the switch-point between Europe and Eurazia!” The route starts from Rotterdam to Brest (Belarus) and from there changes to the CIS and the Russian 1520 Standard Rail Network, from where it follows its route directly to the Moscow region Railway terminals Selyatino and Vorsino. The sustainable character, the connection with +/- 300 million customers in the CIS areas and the fast connection (7 days from Rotterdam to Moscow) are not the only advantages of the shuttle service. An additional facility that can be implemented on the route in the short term on request is the e-seal system. As
This route will keep a lot of freight traffic off the road in the coming years! a participant in the Offshore Energy fair in the RAI in Amsterdam (October 2021), Smart Container has already received many questions about the possibilities for container tracking. The Russian e-seal (an electronic navigation seal) is an identification device that also contains all information regarding the contents of the container and is based on the Russian operating GLONASS navigation satellite system.

interesting option for customers who like to know where their container is located. In addition to all the aspects mentioned, the new Rotterdam - Moscow Shuttle is also directly part of the new Silk Road. It has traditionally gone through different roads and Moscow has always been a part of it. The recent revival of the Silk Road gives the shuttle connection extra meaning!

Gaia
First, an international environmental NGO based in France, has revolutionised the approach to cleaning the oceans from floating plastic continents by developing a highly functional and energy-efficient system.
Led by its president and founder, Gianni Valenti, Gaia First plans to use boats equipped with gasification units in order to collect and convert into hydrogen energy all floating wastes via a process called chemical electrolysis. This process has the power of transforming any ocean clean-up operation into a self-fuelling operation, thus reducing exponentially the costs of its running, which has been for all major clean ups a blocking factor. Their first objective is eliminating the Great
Pacific Garbage Patch (GPGP), the largest of the so-called plastic continents at 1.6 Mn sq kilometres and comprising 80,000 tonnes of floating rubbish. Its size can be equated to nearly 3 times that of France or the U.S. state of Texas. GAIA FIRST’s GPGP project will work on the threefold objective of Retrieving, Recycling and Reviving, in order to clean up the GPGP and convert the waste found there into green energy, cleaning up 90% of the garbage patch In just 5 years, with 2 boats. Imagine this vast area—that is in this very moment continuously killing wildlife, poisoning our waters and blocking Phytoplankton from completing natural CO2 absorption and conversion to oxygen— becoming the very “green fuel” for its own elimination in a circular flow of energy. The gasification of 10 kg of retrieved plastic would yield approximately 3.4 kg of hydrogen,
NCE which would be the energy equivalent of 12.6 litres of petrol. At a rate of 50 tonnes per day of plastic to energy conversion, the energy generated will be sufficient to aliment the boats’ power requirements as well as the conversion process itself. This self-sustaining transformation to green energy of the recycled hydrocarbon-rich waste may be used for all kinds of pollution, from mixed plastics to oil spills, protecting and regenerating all sorts of marine life including phytoplankton, the world’s most efficient natural CO2 off-setter.

leave room for phytoplankton to complete natural CO2 absorption. Additionally, the operation will not generate CO2 as it will be run on the hydrogen created and not on fossil fuels. Gaia First is a pioneer in this type of approach and is looking for supporters and partners worldwide for this international action with global climate and environmental benefits. www.gaiafirst.org
Reviving the wild surface areas of the oceans by cleaning up the garbage patches with this system has the potential of offsetting CO2 emissions equal in size to 4 times the amount offset by the entire Amazon rainforest. This is because clearing away the waste debris will In-Me magazine 41

Exploitation of innovative transport and logistics opportunities within the city.
Moscow-Rotterdam
On July 14, 2021, the Moscow Chamber of Commerce and Industry held a conference "Exploitation of innovative transport and logistics opportunities within the city. Moscow-Rotterdam". The main purpose of the meeting, the moderator of the Conference, the VicePresident of the MCCI, Mr. Suren Vardanyan, named the exchange of experience between the two cities - Moscow and Rotterdam - in solving the conundrums of the transportation systems, the logistics involved, while taking into account the goals of sustainable development. The Russian Trade Representative in the Kingdom of the Netherlands, Mr. Andrey Makarov, said that Russia and the Netherlands have historically been close trade partners. "In terms of trade, the Netherlands is the third trade partner of Russia after China and Germany, and the first destination for Russian goods to Europe," said Mr. Makarov. “When it comes to trade in services - primarily logistics and transportation, being high-tech services - the Netherlands is Russia's ninth transportation partner.” Transportation services between the two countries accounted for one hundred and ninety-one million dollars last year. At the same time, according to Mr. Makarov, Moscow ranks first in exports to the Netherlands among all of the Russian regions. Rotterdam has a special place among European cities, thanks to its geographical, transportation and logistics’ potential. According to him, Moscow and Rotterdam are the leading cities in transportation logistics and “smart” mobility. "All this pertains to similar aspects of the economies of Moscow and Rotterdam in general and in such sectors as transport innovation logistics in particular."

The representative of the Municipality of Rotterdam Martin Guit outlined the key vectors of development of the city's transportation network. Since 2010, the city is focused on increasing the mobility of various population groups, the development of public spaces, increasing its green areas. As statistics show, in recent years, the number of residents using public transport is not increasing, while the number of pedestrians and cyclists is growing. "Rotterdam loves cars, but they cause a lot of air emissions," said Mr. Guit. That is why it was decided to reduce the speed of cars in the city to 30 km per hour, the transition to electric cars is encouraged: there are serious investments in the construction of infrastructure to facilitate the development of electric transport. "We set a goal to achieve zero greenhouse gas emissions by 2030," said a representative of the Dutch side. The speaker called the development of public transport on the river as one more direction of the city's transport system development. The topic was also supported by Mr. Roy van den Berg (Institute for Housing and Urban Development Studies) who spoke about the development of "green mobility in Rotterdam.” Mr. Nikita Ryazantsev, the Director of Information Technology of the “MosTransProject”, spoke about the development of unmanned transport in Moscow, including the creation of a digital road model. The accuracy of the model is 2 mm and allows to significantly reduce the digital capacity requirement of the drone: it does not need to process the entire array of information on board, the main part of it will be contained in a digital map. The use of drones, according to the speaker, significantly reduces traffic fatalities. "I am sure that we will achieve zero road deaths," said the expert. Mr. Ryazantsev spoke about
Despite the fact that the system was created only last October, more than 500 projects have already been considered, and 57 pilot projects have been implemented.
Watch the video registration:

Ms. Maria Andrianova, the Director for Strategic Development of the accelerator "Transportation Innovations of Moscow", spoke about being engaged in selection and the launching of early stage startup projects developing solutions in the field of transportation. Despite the fact that the system was created only last October, more than 500 projects have already been considered, and 57 pilot projects have been implemented. "We are a bridge between technical teams, enthusiasts, labs and transportation systems,” Ms. Andrianova said. She presented a number of promising areas of focus: traffic control projects, scanning and recognition of objects and faces, crosswalk control system, etc. Gijsbert van Marrewijk, a representative of the Dutch company Flying Fish Water Mobility, spoke about the development of a water taxi system in Rotterdam. He said that a water taxi appeared in the city in 2014. Now the Watertaxi Rotterdam has 20 boats, which in the near future can carry up to half a million people annually. If the speed of cars in Rotterdam is now set at 30 km/h, then the water taxi moves at a speed of 60 km/h, which can seriously save time when moving around the city. Now the boats are running on diesel, but options are being developed to switch to electricity and also to hydrogenelectric boats. However, the current solutions are somewhat time consuming. "The river is becoming not a barrier, but a means of transportation. More and more people want to live near the river," said Mr. Marreviijk. Representatives of a number of Russian and Dutch companies, working in the field of transportation and logistics, spoke at the conference. The co-founder and commercial
director of “Hardt Hyperloop”, Mr. Mars Geuze, presented the project "Cargo hyperloop network" (vacuum train) and spoke about the plans for its implementation in Rotterdam. Mr. Wouter Berris, Commercial Director of “Mobility Invest Group”, spoke about the company's strategy to help cities and firms in the Netherlands and in other countries to encourage people to use more sustainable and active mobility options. “Uvl Robotics”s CEO, Mr. Eugene Grankin, spoke about how smart drones and Artificial Based Intelligene solutions can be useful for the logistics industry. Mr. Sergey Sayfudinov, the Project Manager of “H2-Energy” (Skolkovo’s resident), presented an innovative technology of safe mobile storage of hydrogen and other liquefied gases in heavy-duty quartz capillaries. Ms. Kristina Zarubina, the Executive Director of the private technopark “Kalibr”, said that the technopark has had a testing ground for drones since 2016. "We employ not only our tenants here, but also student teams and research laboratories involved in this problem," Ms. Zarubina said. The Technical Director of “Elektrotransportnye Tekhnologii, LLC” (a resident of “Kalibr” technopark) presented the experience of implementing an unmanned electric truck at the logistics center. Summarizing the results of the conference, Mr. Vardanyan noted that Moscow welcomes all entrepreneurs, who offer joint projects. He invited participants to the next meeting, which will be devoted to the work of technology parks in different cities and regions, as well as their cooperation. "We want to reduce the cost of sharing opinions and projects", Vardanyan said.

INSPIRATION
text : Frank Donkers (In-Me magazine)
AN IDEA FROM REINVENTED FOR THE FUTURE! We are all familiar with a pneumatic
system principle in which a cylinder is fed through a tube system at high speed by means of under and overpressure from pneumatic post that was once widely used. It was used in the London Stock Exchange as a money transport system, among others, as well as in many other sectors including department stores, hospitals and banks.
A system that has been in use since the mid19th century, but has fallen out of favour since the 1980s, but is still in use in a number of sectors.
The idea of using the compressed air system for large goods and even passenger transport is even older than the postal use, in 1799 the London inventor and mechanical engineer George Medhurst based the system on freight transport. In the meantime, the idea has always been in the future-imagination and has never really been applied. The most realistic endeavour has been one by the American inventor Alfred Ely. But unfortunately, despite a lot of efforts and major investments, his initiative never got further than a 300 meter long test track. After the American SpaceX gave new input
M THE PAST D Alfred Ely Beach's experimental pneumatic elevated subway on display in 1867
to the idea in 2015, many companies and governments stepped in to promote the transport system for the future. Because in the short term, building a completely new infrastructure is a major task. The fact is that many actors support the idea of the hyperloop and include it in their policies as a serious option for future use. This is evident from a recent letter from the Dutch Ministry of Infrastructure and Water Management to the House of Representatives in which it is stated: ''The hyperloop is a potentially new and fast means of transport: a vehicle through a tube with low pressure. After a series of discussions with the business community and institutions from both the Netherlands and abroad, we conclude that
good progress has been made on this subject in recent years. It is therefore time for the next step in which public and private parties look at the possibilities for collaboration in order to invest in knowledge development, European standards and the hyperloop as a possible export product in the coming years . We also want to test whether the hyperloop can become a safe and sustainable mode of transport.”

Mapping opportunitys in Food Chain Business A nd
when we talk about the food chain, the logistics sector is a big part of it!
The FWSM arises from the idea of mapping and grouping solutions against food waste and loss by sector group. Within our network we see that many initiatives have been going on for a long time and that many new startup innovations and opportunities are being added at a rapid pace. By bundling all these initiatives, products and innovations by sector, the FWSM provides a good overview of the position in which the solution focus is already located. And also wherestill much can be done. With the FWSM it becomes visible which companies, authorities, universities and organizations offer activity, research and products to prevent Food Waste and Food Loss.
It is obvious that precise navigation and timetables guarantee fast distribution. There is always a lot to be gained in this, to regard from food waste. Data coordination and distribution specifications help keep products fresh and limit food loss! The shelf-life of products can benefit a lot from innovations and new ideas within transport and logistics sector. The FWSM indicates the following segments where benefits can be obtained in distribution and transport:
Conditioned Transport
There are various options within this segment that can contribute to the prevention of food waste or food loss during transport: ● Temperature tracking! ● Vacuum cooling, to reduce the temperature in a short time ( important at the First stage of transport of fresh products ) ● Better and digital Labeling and prevent confusing about conditioning.
Precision Navigation
GPS data operated schedules that signals and counters when any irregularities occur during the delivery cycle, can for example reduce loss in transport. It simply counters delays. Also important at navigation: ● Measuring Waste by advanced calculated delivery lines.
Efficient Transport Packaging
There is a lot of loss due to inaccurate packaging. The shape and material of the packaging is crucial, so the packaging must also be tailored to the type of transport. Research, and use the most efficient stacking and loading options to transport goods. Also important: ● Adapt automation equipment to the type of transport.
