How does ASTER support the e-commerce industry?

ASTER supports the industry by being able to be a neutral force in complicated matters, where we can listen, concretize what needs to be done and help the industry move forward. We do this by creating space for work forums such as the Sustainability Labeling Forum, which identifies and acts on what needs to be done to achieve more sustainable e-commerce transport.

The challenges linked to achieving an e-commerce that is efficient, competitive and sustainable can be difficult to solve by themselves within their organization or together with their suppliers. Sometimes the issues are complex and require a different kind of approach to create change, which ASTER can help with. 

By capturing and driving cross-industry issues such as industry agreements, industry practices and new standards. But also, when necessary, lead larger state-funded innovation projects that test new solutions, and business models and challenge existing regulations in order to achieve sustainable e-commerce.
