The grand business prize “Fast Forward Award” was awarded to PJM. The jury of experts appreciated the innovative power of the WaggonTracker system and designated PJM winner of the competition.

Barbara Eibinger-Miedl, member of the Styrian government and Christoph Ludwig, CEO of SFG, presented the award to Günter Petschnig, CEO of PJM.

Günter Petschnig thanked the PJM-team but also emphasized the relevance of the WaggonTracker-system in terms of environment: “In these days, reducing CO2 emission is a big issue. A monitoring system is crucial to make rail freight transport more attractive, faster and more transparent – and thus achieving a shift from road transport to railway transport.”

The Fast Forward Award is enabled by the SFG. The participating companies have to face a multilevel selection process. A festive event is the final highlight.
