Among the elements indicated were <strong>natural depths of up to 18 metres, the International Free Port regime and a rail network directly linking the ports to the main industrial markets of Central and Eastern Europe.<br \/>\n<\/strong>A further competitive advantage concerns the Free Port itself, which allows goods to be managed under <strong>favourable customs and tax conditions,<\/strong> facilitating logistics and industrial operations linked to the future critical raw materials supply chains.<\/p>\n<p>The infrastructure component is complemented by the scientific one. Consalvo also underlined the <strong>presence in the area of one of Europe\u2019s most developed research ecosystems, with institutions such as ICTP, SISSA, Elettra Sincrotrone, Area Science Park and the University of Trieste.<\/strong> This asset could support not only logistics, but also materials research, certification activities and the technological development of new industrial supply chains.<\/p>\n<p>According to the president of the Port Authority, Trieste has the characteristics needed to play a leading role in future European strategies for critical raw materials, thanks to its consolidated international vocation and a geographical position that connects it directly to the main continental markets. The aim, Consalvo stressed, is to <strong>strengthen the integration between the port, universities, research centres and businesses, transforming the area\u2019s logistics vocation<\/strong> into new industrial opportunities in support of Italian and European competitiveness.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>TRIESTE \u2013 The ports of Trieste and Monfalcone are aiming to carve
