Season’s Greetings from the IKIGAI project!
As 2025 comes to an end and we prepare for a promising year ahead, the IKIGAI consortium would like to wish our community, partners and supporters a peaceful festive season and a positive start to the New Year.
This period offers a welcome opportunity to pause and reflect on what lies ahead. From July onwards, the IKIGAI project brought together companies, cities, logistics innovators and changemakers from across Europe with the aim of advancing a more collaborative, efficient and decarbonised logistics ecosystem. Our shared ambition is clear: to accelerate progress towards zero-emission, Physical Internet-enabled freight transport through practical standards, real-world pilots and a forward-looking Twin Transition Genome.
In short, we will spend 2026 doing what many of us secretly hope for when packing away the Christmas decorations: creating harmonised systems, improving flows and reducing unnecessary load.
Thank you for being part of this journey. We look forward to continuing our collaboration, sharing insights, and delivering value.
Wishing you Season’s Greetings, a Merry Christmas, and a Happy New Year filled with clarity, good connections and well-coordinated networks.
Webinar Physical Internet applications for containerised consolidation on public transport
Webinar explored Physical Internet applications for integrating freight into public transport, co-organised by IKIGAI, ALICE, DISCO, Shift2Zero and URBANE, highlighting urban and rural logistics improvements and emission reduction potential.
Strengthening global collaboration to advance the Physical Internet
The transition toward Physical Internet–enabled logistics is accelerating globally. The EU-funded IKIGAI project contributes by translating strategic vision into practical implementation through innovation, piloting and international cooperation supporting collaborative, interoperable and sustainable logistics networks.
Key takeaways from the International Expert workshop
An international expert workshop gathered researchers, industry stakeholders and standardisation experts to explore how innovation pilots and emerging logistics solutions can scale into interoperable Physical Internet systems supporting efficient, collaborative and zero-emission logistics networks.
