Meerdere malen per jaar slaan Jong Havenvereniging en het STC-NMU de handen in elkaar bij de organisatie van de Masterclasses. Voor de laatste editie van 2013, op 12 december, werkt de STC-Group samen met Erasmus Smart Port Rotterdam en wordt mede mogelijk gemaakt vanuit het programma HBO in de Haven. Ook leden van Jong Havenvereniging kunnen aansluiten bij deze Masterclass met het thema: ‘Chokepoints in corridors: perspectives on bottlenecks in European transport networks’.

,,Intermodal transport is often hampered  by bottlenecks in transport networks.” Patrick Witte, researcher associated at EUR ‘Smartport’ research centre works on a theoretical model to build understanding on the multiple dimensions of bottlenecks.  During the Masterclass he will explain his model and the results of his research so far.

A panel of professionals, consisting of DB Schenker, Havenbedrijf Rotterdam and netwerkoperator Contargo shine their lights from their point of view.
