- What to do about it?
- Torbjørn Eide - Vice President, Klaveness Ship Management AS
- Nick Chubb - Founder & Author, Thetius
As we get ever-more digitally connected and co-dependent, how do we maximize the benefits whilst mitigating the risks presented by digital human connectivity? What strategies and governance policies should operators & owners be most focused on? And how can the industry use adjacent verticals to learn from at pace?
The adoption of AI and machine learning in shipping is transforming an age-old industry, making it more adaptable, efficient, and sustainable. As these technologies evolve, we’ll likely see even more applications, potentially reshaping global logistics and trade. In this session, we look at current use cases and their impact on crewing and ship management operations.

Technology already plays a big part in day-to-day life, but how has it been used to great effect in crew management and the seafarer experience? What are the challenges, and how might technology improve crewing activities in future?
Safety at sea is perhaps the field in which technology has the potential for the most impactful, exciting and important transformations. In this session we look at how technology is making our ships and seafarers safer.

This panel discussion connects training providers, crewing agencies, ship operators and equipment manufacturers to discuss the ever-growing battle of availability vs competency. With new technology and a thirst for retrofit ability on the rise, how can we ensure that crews have the competency and training required to keep pace with change.
In this interactive session, the audience will have the opportunity to work with facilitators on two themes, according to interest, in an exchange built around the practical – developing ideas and tools that can be implemented straight away.
