The project aims to develop the research and experimental industrial development activities necessary for the implementation of a new concept of extended collaborative logistics micro-hub (MLC) to support circular economy processes.
This project's main industrial research objective is the economic conceptualization, using game theory, and the implementation, using distributed ledger technology (DLT) - blockchain, of a digital platform for the complete operationalization of the collaborative micro-hubs concept extended to support and encourage circular economy processes. The realization of this objective then paves the way for the realization of several other objectives, highlighting the exploration of the intellectual property produced by all elements of the project consortium, the publication and scientific dissemination of the project results by the UMa, the incorporation in its portfolio of new ways of sectoral and technological innovation by ARDITI, the inauguration of the implementation of Logimade's RDI strategy, and the triggering of its internationalization strategy with a competitive digital service with high added value.
