About

Hanna Palmqvist is a leading researcher at the intersection of logistics, autonomous systems, and sustainable urban mobility. Her work focuses on the transformative potential of autonomous delivery robots (ADRs) in last-mile logistics, examining how these technologies reshape supply chains, business models, and environmental impact. Her landmark 2024 literature review, “Autonomous last-mile delivery robots: a literature review,” has already garnered over 105 citations, establishing her as a key voice in this rapidly evolving field. Palmqvist’s research systematically evaluates how ADRs add value to the transport industry, addressing critical questions about operational efficiency, competitive advantage, and the practical challenges of integrating self-driving vehicles into dense urban environments. She is particularly recognized for bridging the gap between technological development and real-world logistics applications, offering frameworks that help both academics and industry practitioners understand the implications of autonomous delivery. Her work has been instrumental in shaping discussions around sustainable last-mile solutions, and she continues to influence policy and innovation in smart city logistics. Palmqvist’s contributions are essential reading for anyone studying the future of autonomous transport and urban freight.
