Piraeus Port Authority (PPA) and the National Technical University of Athens (NTUA) have signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) to collaborate on research and technology projects supporting the future development of the Port of Piraeus.
The agreement covers joint work in areas including smart port technologies, digital transformation, environmental sustainability, maritime safety and logistics. It also establishes a framework for collaborative research, knowledge exchange and educational activities between the two organisations.
“Our cooperation with the National Technical University of Athens marks an important step in strengthening the connection between academia and the port industry,” said Han Chao, Chairman of PPA.
“By leveraging NTUA’s scientific expertise alongside PPA’s operational experience, we are creating the conditions to develop advanced solutions that will support the sustainable development of the Port of Piraeus.”
PPA says the collaboration forms part of its wider programme to modernise the Port of Piraeus through strategic partnerships.
