On 21 October 2026 in Antwerp, SEAMLESS will bring together the many other parts needed to make automated Inland Waterway Transport work, from vessel technologies and remote operations to ports, logistics and multimodal integration.

But every partner has a different part of that story to tell.

Our part of the story is turning innovation into opportunity.

At PNO Innovation, we work to understand what it takes for the solutions developed within SEAMLESS to move beyond demonstration and become part of real logistics operations. This means looking at their economic and market potential, business models, stakeholder needs and pathways towards exploitation and uptake.

Because making automated waterborne transport possible is not only about proving that the technology works. It is also about creating the conditions for it to deliver value in the real world.

Different technologies. Different expertise. One connected transport chain.

On 21 October, those pieces come together as SEAMLESS puts its vision for automated inland waterway transport to the test in a real logistics environment.
