On 14 January, the Port of Rotterdam and Port of Antwerp-Bruges organized a joint event at the Solvay Library in Brussels to present the study “Value Creation for Europe: A First Study on the Value Creation for Europe’s Sustainable and Competitive Position of the Combined Ports of Rotterdam and Antwerp-Bruges,” conducted by Erasmus UPT and VUB.
Larissa van der Lugt and Elvira Haezendonck highlighted the findings, emphasising how the synergy between these two major ports results in a combined impact that is “greater than the sum of its parts.” This collaborative scale not only drives sustainability but also secures Europe’s industrial future in an increasingly competitive global landscape.
