Do startups really need a platform?

After all, Carl Benz, Steve Jobs or Malcom McLean did not need help when it came to changing the world with their ideas ... That is of course one way of looking at it. But let us ask the question in a different way: How much further could we be if the really clever people in the world had received just a little bit of help? That is how we see it. And that is why we established startport. Because the logistics industry in particular depends on fresh ideas and new perspectives.

Innovative digital logistics solutions

startport intends to integrate startups that focus on logistics and the supply chain into the ecosystem. Therefore it is looking for startups that offer solutions / innovations for the following:

“We are the garage for the geniuses of today.”

Ideas. New perspectives. Innovations.

The backgrounds of modern inventors make for a good story. But not every important innovation has to start in a garage. Therefore, startport is creating an environment in which ideas for innovative logistics solutions can mature and take shape - with the support of duisport and partners from all relevant logistics sectors.
