Grand Opening of Logistics 4.0 laboratory and SMARTLOG seminar

On 25 April 2019 the Logistics 4.0 laboratory was opened – close to 70 participants both from research and industry got to touch, test, try and became surprised by innovative solutions!

NTNU has establishing Norway’s first logistics lab that merges digital technologies with traditional production and logistics systems – enabling researchers, practitioners, engineers, pioneers, students, and other enthusiasts to come together and collaborate on common ground. The official opening was accompanied by a SMARTLOG seminar on “Creating value from digitalization in logistics”. See the official invitation here.
