Last mile logistics play a critical role in today's supply chains, focusing on the final delivery phase to the consumer. In order to optimise this process, companies are adopting various innovative strategies. Among these, the use of alternative and zero-emission vehicle types emerges as an effective approach to reduce environmental impact and mitigate congestion problems in urban areas, helping to improve the overall sustainability of delivery operations.

On 8 May, this will be discussed as part of the meeting organised by EvenT, which aims to examine the complexity of the last mile in the supply dynamics of 100 modern-day cities, characterised by a heterogeneous and discontinuous evolutionary process, which has seen the development of goods distribution, and of e-commerce, with its own unique issues and contradictions.

Meanwhile, on 10 May the magazine Vie e Trasporti  will propose an innovative reflection on the transformation of urban transport through micrology. Vehicles dedicated to small-scale transport and short-range delivery, which are becoming increasingly common in urban areas, will be discussed, as will the ways in which this rapidly evolving sector is changing the city transport landscape. This phenomenon, still not fully regulated today, is set to expand further in the near future, thanks to new vehicles and the use of advanced technologies.
