The Mediterranean is a sea that brings people together and a highway for trade and exchanges. In this context, enhancing the port and maritime sectors as wealth creators both on land and, through developing a sustainable blue economy, at sea, is a priority for the Mediterranean basin. More specifically, the great potential of the Mediterranean area in the port system, calls for innovative management policies to stay competitive, in a context where more and more emerging initiatives and markets calls for a mandatory evolution of the sector. Therefore, new cooperation policies are of great importance.
