About PortXL
PortXL is the world’s first port accelerator located in Rotterdam. Bridging the gap between innovative start-ups and scale-ups and the established port industry. Together with our corporate partners and the connected ecosystem we support innovators to make maritime climate positive. We search, match and accelerate the newest technologies around the world.
