Abstract

Ports currently face an environment characterized by increased scale of carriers and vessel sizes, stakeholder opposition to port expansion, and heavy regulation. Therefore, ports are preparing strategic responses. A possible response could entail the development of strategic partnerships, or any form of collaboration, which could allow them to obtain one or more competitive advantages through more or alternative combinations of unique resources. This assumes of course that the specific type of collaboration does not lead to such a (low) level of competition, conflicting with antitrust regulation.
