PortXL

PortXL is the world’s first port accelerator located in Rotterdam. Together with our corporate partners and the connected ecosystem we support innovators to make maritime climate positive by bridging the gap between innovative start-ups and scale-ups and the established port industry.  We search, match and accelerate the newest technologies around the world. We look for innovative start-ups and scale-ups that have the potential to change the maritime industry for the better. What makes PortXL stand out are the valuable pilot opportunities with corporate partners. As of August 2024, our 121 PortXL alumni have signed more than 225 paid collaborations together with our corporate partners. Of the companies who have participated in our program since 2016, 83% are still in operation today.
