On 8-9 November 2011, Baltic.AirCargo.Net Information Platform Familiarisation Workshop took place at the Institute of Aviation. The event was organised by the Institute of Aviation in Warsaw. The Institute was represented by NTC Director Mr. Zbigniew Wołejsza, EU Projects Coordinator Mr. Krzysztof Piwek, Mr. Andrzej Iwaniuk, Mr. Wojciech Miksa and Mr. Bartosz Dziugieł
The “Baltic.Air.Cargo.Net” was approved by the Monitoring Committee for the ITERREG IVB Baltic Sea region on 10 June 2010. Amount of about 3 million contracted for 36 months, which were distributed among the partners from Germany, Estonia, Finland, Latvia, Lithuania, Poland, Sweden, UK and Belarus, will be allocated to strengthen the aviation sector freight and logistics to improve the accessibility of areas of southern Europe, Russia and central Asia and China. The project will contribute to the creating of new impulses of the economy.
The idea of the project bases on the observation that despite the existence of many well-developed regional airports, they remain in isolation from the international air cargo market, which prevents their further development.
