<em>Transport is a global phenomenon with regional and local impacts. It involves a multitude of actors, and today there is increasing pressure for transport chains to be environmentally sustainable, predictable, seamless, and cost-efficient. An end-to-end transport most often actually engages multiple transport modes involving visits to various transport nodes. This then requires a high degree of collaboration between the involved actors both within and often across national borders. There is a need to better synchronise transport practices. Big hopes are being placed on digitalisation as an enabler and means for integrated and sustainable performance along the multi-modal supply chain. To do this requires informed decisions on what changes are needed and how they should be made. Before implementing changes, there is a need to reflect on and experiment with the available options to ensure that the desired effects are both feasible and effective, both for the individual organisations and entities involved and for the ecosystem as a whole. Engagement of the multitude of stakeholders is particularly important. Drawing from experiences derived from the ecosystem innovation arenas (living labs), initiated under the European financed FEDeRATED project, this article provides some observations on how to pursue digital innovation in transport ecosystems.</em>
