Office for the Promotion and Financing of Innovation in the Port and Maritime Cluster
The Office for the Promotion and Financing of Innovation in the Port and Maritime Cluster (IMARPORT) is an initiative of Fundación Valenciaport aimed at helping companies in the port and maritime sector to participate in R&D&i projects and in tenders for grants directed at the implementation of digitalization, energy transition and productivity improvement solutions, among other topics. It provides assistance in calls for both national and European R&D&i programmes and in the deployment of innovative solutions.
IMARPORT was created in July 2023 as a structure to stimulate innovation and progress in the port and maritime sector. Companies in the cluster that subscribe to the services are prompted to adopt a proactive approach to innovation and continuous improvement, and are encouraged to submit project proposals in various calls for funding programmes. By so doing, IMARPORT fosters greater involvement in R&D and the deployment of digitalization and decarbonization solutions, among other areas of activity.
