PortXL is the World’s Port Innovator – innovation driver in the green energy, logistics, maritime & process industry.
Since 2015, PortXL has been committed to giving innovative (young) entrepreneurs a foothold in the maritime business world. In this way, we are working together to create a strong, future-proof port.
Innovation is now a much-heard and popular word in the maritime sector. Every company does ‘something’ with it, some more than others. In practice, we at PortXL see that innovation is often also considered exciting. But the fact is: we can no longer ignore it. It is no longer a choice or a nice ‘extra’; it is a necessity if we want to continue to exist together as a port, and as a port business sector.
Exclusively selected start-ups will be accelerated during an intensive mentorship driven program located in the city of Rotterdam. Apart from training, PortXL offers an ecosystem of founders, investors and corporate partners that supports and accelerates the entrepreneurial journey.
On the final closure day, the teams will pitch their business ideas to an audience of launching customers, business angels, venture capitalists, multinationals, journalists and sponsors.
We don’t just accelerate startups; We innovate ports for sustainable growth.
Let’s innovate together!
