More than a hundred companies, government agencies, knowledge institutions, and interest groups also provided valuable input. In addition, residents and young people from the region shared their views on what they think is important for the future of the port.
The Rotterdam City Council adopted the 2050 Port Vision on 18 December 2025.
In the new vision, the port of Rotterdam aims to be climate neutral by 2050 and to make a major contribution to the circular society.
Due to the strong clusters of companies and hinterland connections, the port continues to play a key role in ensuring security of supply and energy for many products that are needed on a daily basis.
