In this session, delegates will hear firsthand from a shipowner/operator about how they manage crew access to social media. Can the freedom to use social media to publish a seafarers’ on-board experiences help recruitment and retention metrics? What impact does that access to the digital world beyond the vessel have on morale onboard? And what challenges have they faced?
The second of four 20-minute seafarer-focused interviews.
A real-world example of AI-driven technology currently in operation. What advantages have been realized? What lessons have been learnt?
Digital technology is a regular focus of our industry. How it can enhance operational efficiency, crew welfare and, as discussed earlier today, provide a platform to change the image of crewing are all regular discussion topics. But do the advantages lead to complacency when managing risk? 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?
A live interview with the captain of a large commercial vessel. Stay tuned for more details.

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.
Building on the training theme from the previous panel, delegates will hear from an organization currently using the latest technology to train seafarers in the application of alternatively-fueled vessel operations.
