ETP WATERBORNE ^TP

>>  The WATERBORNE ^TP is a forum where all stakeholders from the waterborne (sea & inland) sector define and share a common medium and long term vision, "Vision 2020", driving the innovation efforts, and also define and share a Strategic Research Agenda (SRA) describing the RDI initiatives necessary to materialise the vision

>> The platform includes all actors along the waterborne value chain: those who build ships, boats and their systems and equipment, those who use and operate them for transport and services, those who provide the related infrastructure and ports and those who organize the exploitation of ocean resources.

>>  The objective of WATERBORNE ^TP is to bundle efforts of the European waterborne actors, to remain champions, in maritime transport, in the production of efficient and safe vessels as well as the related systems and equipment, in providing infrastructure and logistics for ports and waterways, in offshore technology and for leisure craft - to continue to create value and high qualification employment opportunities in Europe.
