Hi,

As a research engineer at P&G, my role is to seek innovation and to partner with people who can bring innovation to the company in the area of transport and logistics. My interest is in the area of Physical Distribution and Physical Internet. I am passionate about innovation in road transport (i.e commercial vehicles, automation, platooning, ITS etc.) and Rail Freight (Colloboration, shared assets etc.).

I will be also sharing with you the progress we have made with Project Transformers (www.transformers-project.eu), and look for synergies in similar lines.
