𝐃𝐫𝐨𝐧𝐞𝐏𝐨𝐫𝐭 𝐑𝐨𝐭𝐭𝐞𝐫𝐝𝐚𝐦: 𝐀𝐝𝐯𝐚𝐧𝐜𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐒𝐦𝐚𝐫𝐭 𝐌𝐨𝐛𝐢𝐥𝐢𝐭𝐲 𝐢𝐧 𝐌𝟒𝐇 🚁 Yesterday, we joined key stakeholders—including companies, government representatives, education and knowledge institutions—to explore the future of innovative business in M4H. It’s clear that the greatest opportunities lie in connecting themes like 𝐞𝐧𝐞𝐫𝐠𝐲 𝐭𝐫𝐚𝐧𝐬𝐢𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧, 𝐬𝐦𝐚𝐫𝐭 𝐦𝐨𝐛𝐢𝐥𝐢𝐭𝐲. At DronePort Rotterdam, we’re dedicated to discovering where these themes intersect, especially in smart mobility.

We’re committed to being involved in the long-term development of both the port and urban landscape, having actual impact in the process and contributing to sustainable growth and innovation. In collaboration with leaders like Petra de Groene (Director of Economy & Sustainability) and Egbert van der Wal (Director of Port Development), we’re aligning on practical steps to bring these ambitions to life. A special thank you goes out to Jouke Goslinga, Gábor Everraert and their teams for organizing this meet-up! Was great speaking to you Hoefnagels, Arjan. Looking forward to follow up on this all!

Good morning! Starting my 8-minute bike commute to the office through #Copenhagen, #Denmark. How are you getting to work? 🚲 🚘 Excited to pedal through this city, famed for its "#hygge" vibe and top rankings in global happiness reports. But there's more to Copenhagen than leisurely rides; it's a hotspot for innovation. At Allyy.io, we're grateful to call this vibrant city our home base. Denmark's innovation strength is evident, shining brightly in the European Innovation Scoreboard. In 2023, it surpassed the EU average by a staggering 125%, showcasing strengths in education, research, and digital skills. This scoreboard serves as a reliable benchmark for innovation, reflecting Denmark's leadership not just within the EU but globally. Copenhagen is a standout, particularly for startups, claiming the top spot in Europe and second globally in 2022. And Denmark's reputation for integrity is unmatched, named the least corrupt country globally in the 2023 corruption perception index. As I navigate Copenhagen's streets on my bike, I'm proud to be part of its innovative fabric. Alongside the Allyy.io team, we're embracing the city's entrepreneurial spirit and contributing to its culture of progress. 🚴♂️💼 #Copenhagen #Innovation #Allyy.io
