The SMN Vision

Smart Maritime Network is returning to Greece on 10 May 2023 for the 4th annual SMN ATHENS CONFERENCE.

The maritime industry's digital economy continues to grow with enhanced connectivity among ships, devices, people, stakeholders and processes. Efficient data collection, measurement, and analysis are vital for this interconnectivity and utilising this data can drive growth, development, and transformation for companies. Data-driven decision making enables shipping companies to make better choices, boost efficiency, and enhance safety.

Recent announcements, such as the commitment made by all nine members of the DCSA to adopt electronic bills of lading (eBL) by 2030 and the Smart Maritime Council's publication of a Standardised Vessel Dataset (SVD) for Noon Reports, suggest that the industry is increasingly open to digitalisation advancements.

However, rapid transformation brings challenges such as investing, partnering, and effectively communicating change while also addressing employee impact. Companies must find ways to use technology to improve operations, set a vision for digital transformation, and allocate resources to implement new systems. They must also overcome challenges such as data security and regulatory compliance, and lead and manage a workforce that may be impacted by automation and other technological changes.

SMN Athens 2023 will be an executive-led platform to accelerate action for sustainable growth and ensure competitiveness in a rapidly changing technological landscape. For more details please contact: cathy.hodge@smartmaritimenetwork.com
