Abstract: Major global events occurred in the past few years raised several challenges to te global supply chain. A global pandemic, a war in Eastern Europe and a shortage of energy and raw materials are among the main events that are challenges our economies and societies, with consequences and effects also on local and regional communities. In this scenario, Trieste has been consolidating its role as a port-city and an important gateway of freight flows from the Far East and the Mediterranean Sea towards Central and Eastern Europe, thanks to its geographical positions, its consolidated networks of rail connections, and, most importantly, to the work done everyday by operators and instituions in the transport and logistic sectors.
