Converting results from pioneering research and development projects into attractive commercial products and services is an integral part of Marlo’s business idea.
Projects funded by the European Union under the Framework Programmes for research and technical development have been fundamental in Marlo’s development. These projects go back to the mid-1990ies. They cover a wide spectrum of topics, from cargo handling in maritime and rail transport, via security in ports and supply chains to intelligent transport systems and paperless freight transport management.
In addition to enabling development of expertise and products, such projects forge sustainable partnerships and relationship with potential future customers.
