The BLUE
PORTS project proudly participated in the Smart City Expo World Congress 2025,
held in Barcelona between 4-6 November 2025, gathering more than 25.000
participants from 140 countries.
Invited by the European Climate, Infrastructure and Environment Executive
Agency (CINEA), BLUE PORTS was showcased at the European Commission’s stand,
among other outstanding initiatives and projects supported by the Commission.
This recognition highlights BLUE PORTS’ pioneering role in driving the green
transition of European ports.
As project
coordinator, ReSEL@TUC presented the BLUE PORTS Certification Scheme for port
sustainability personnel, highlighting its contribution to the development of
sustainable and smart ports — and, by extension, smarter cities. The team also
connected with port authorities, city leaders, tech innovators, and investors
from across Europe, fostering collaboration and sharing insights for
sustainable maritime development. The official invitation to showcase BLUE
PORTS at the European Commission’s exhibition area highlights the growing
importance of transforming ports into greener, smarter, and more sustainable
hubs for the future.
