Russian Railways is launching a corporate acceleration programme in logistics to select and test start-up projects that offer solutions to optimise current processes and create new products for the Russian Railways Holding.
The accelerator’s main focus is aimed at reducing the costs associated with transport, service, warehouse and information logistics, introducing advanced digital technologies and automating processes, as well as improving security.
The programme’s partners will be leading Russian transport and logistics companies of the country, as well as industrial enterprises, but start-up projects from Russia, the CIS countries and the far abroad which are ready to conduct tests at the testing ground of Russian Railways can also take part in the selection.
Applications can be submitted before 1 September 2021, after which an examination and selection of projects for testing and pilot runs will be organised. Developers of the most promising projects will present their solutions to representatives of Russian Railways on Demo Day and have the opportunity to enter into long-term cooperation with the Company.
