Know Your Vessel |
Knowing your vessel(s) sounds pretty straightforward. But how deeply can you assess the ships you’re dealing with, or considering as counterparties and customers? Behavioral screening is now seen as a crucial part of vessel due diligence. And although some may see it as a sunk cost; for others it can be a selling point, paving the way for enhanced collaboration, and customer and client satisfaction. SPEAKERS TO FOLLOW

Sharing is Caring: Data Driven Safety |
Phil Roche, Norton Rose Fulbright Co-Global Head of Shipping Line Dahle, Gard Chief Customer Officer Charlie Thomas, The Insurance Insider Director of Content (moderator) MORE SPEAKERS TO FOLLOW Keeping the seas safe is a goal shared by organizations across the maritime ecosystem. Data and AI can help in everything from loss prevention to vetting to engineering. Many players have their own views, practices, and data to enhance safety, but these are often treated as private. Should they be shared instead? And if so, rather than do this piecemeal, is there an argument for a centralised maritime data bank? Do we have more to gain than fear from sharing, and what are the risks?

We're Gonna Need a Bigger Boat |
Tom Hutton, XL Innovate Managing Partner MORE SPEAKERS TO FOLLOW It’s a big shipping company’s world. In recent years, companies like Maersk, Odfjell, Klaveness, Signal Group and others have armed themselves to the teeth with tech and analytics. How is this impacting the long-tail – the 80% of shipping companies with fewer than 20 vessels? Will smaller companies be permanently consigned to the second division of shipping? What does it mean for brokers?
