Listen "The Rise Of Marine Digitalization: Smart Ships, Smarter Operations"
Episode Synopsis
In our last episode, we looked at how shipping - one of the world’s oldest industries - has evolved, with digital technology driving much of that change. Safety, efficiency, and sustainability remain the big drivers. Today’s ships benefit from smarter logistics, predictive maintenance, and real-time tracking. But taking digitalization further in such a complex sector isn’t easy. New and existing technologies must integrate seamlessly to keep operations safe, resilient, and reliable. Add to that the challenges of cybersecurity, secure ship-to-shore data, and preparing the workforce for a digital future - and the task becomes even tougher. That’s exactly what we’re diving into in this episode: how to take digitalization to the next level in the maritime industry.
