: One of the greatest challenges of the European last mile logistics sector is the requirement to decouple its economic growth from resource use and air pollutants emissions from transport operations. This requirement, alongside the rise of e-commerce and the phenomenon of urbanization, creates an urgent need for European Union's member states to identify and rapidly upscale innovative last-mile solutions that will ensure the green and digital transformation of European urban environments. To achieve such a goal, innovative frameworks such as the Physical Internet (PI) are required, which can lead to low-emission logistics services that remain competitive compared to the latest industry trends such as same-or next-day-delivery, real-time parcel tracking, and omni-channel distribution. The URBANE project introduces an Innovation Transferability Platform with Digital Twinning capabilities, under the Platform-as-a-service (PaaS) paradigm, which enables the project's Living Labs to assess the impact of the PI-inspired interventions before or during their implementation in the real-world context. In that regard, in the current article, a presentation of initial project results is given, including platform micro-services and Use Cases (UCs) that aim at supporting the transition to the PI.
