On January 14, 2025, the Luxembourg Institute of Science and Technology (LIST) held a press conference to present the TRANSCEND project. This event served as an excellent platform to showcase the work being carried out through our partnership.
The TRANSCEND project brings together Luxembourg’s leading research and cybersecurity institutions, government bodies, and key private-sector partners, along with stakeholders from across Europe. By promoting a collaborative approach to addressing critical issues, the project aims to significantly enhance the security of Europe’s freight transport networks and, by extension, the broader supply chain ecosystem.
The event gathered prominent stakeholders from Luxembourg and European Union institutions.
Cindy Guerlain from LIST and Bernard Stoll, CEO of LuxCargo Handling, presented the TRANSCEND project and the Luxembourg pilot, respectively. Additionally, Stéphanie Obertin, Luxembourg’s Minister of Research and Higher Education, and Anne Calteux, the European Commission’s Representative in Luxembourg, delivered speeches during the conference.
Regarding the project, Anne Calteux stated:
“The European Commission is proud to support the TRANSCEND project, a key initiative to strengthen the resilience of Europe’s freight transport networks to cyber and non-cyber events. In an increasingly interconnected world, ensuring the security of critical infrastructures is essential to protect our supply chains and support the competitiveness of the European economy. Through Horizon Europe, the Commission is committed to fostering innovation and collaboration, bringing together public and private actors to tackle complex challenges and improve the security and sustainability of Europe’s transport ecosystem.”
