The Unione Interporti Riuniti (UIR) welcomes the publication of the "LogIN Business" call, promoted by the Ministry of Infrastructure and Transport and financed as part of the PNRR, with an allocation of 157 million euros for the digitization of the logistics chain. The call provides for the financing of purchases and/or projects for digitization that respect intermodal purposes (co-financing at 40% of the costs) or under the "de minimis" regime (in these cases the contribution can reach 100% of the costs).

UIR highlighted that the call represents a concrete step towards the digital transition of the logistics and intermodal sector, with the aim of incentivizing advanced technological solutions, improve the exchange of data between actors in the supply chain and make it easier to efficient and sustainable freight transport. "The - underlined the president of the association, Matteo Gasparato - is the pillar on which to build the logistics of the future. The MIT call represents an opportunity to modernise processes, promote interoperability between the different modes of transport and enhance the role of central of freight terminals as technologically advanced and integrated into the national logistics system. Now it is essential that resources are used in a targeted manner, with a strategy shared between the public and private sectors that knows how to systematize the infrastructural excellence already present in our country".

The Intermodality Logistics Association Sustainable (ALIS) welcomed the publication of the call which - said Vice President Marcello Di Caterina - "represents a concrete sign of attention to the modernization of the logistics and freight transport sector". "The call - he added - fits perfectly into the path of growth and relaunch traced by the PNRR and recognizes the Digitalisation a strategic role to make more efficient, safe and sustainable supply chain. Interventions like this will allow companies to implement technological solutions for sharing information between operators, the dematerialization of transport documents, load optimisation and modal integration, in line with the European interoperability objectives". 'ALIS - concluded Di Caterina - applauds the commitment of MIT and RAM to have created a concrete tool, which enhances the needs of the and contributes to strengthening the competitiveness of of our logistics system at national and international level. We will continue to work proactively alongside the Institutions to foster innovation, sustainability and simplification in the world of transport and logistics".
