Live Blog: Immediasea Disruptive Sustainability roundtable

Event organiser Immediasea noted: “Today, some maritime companies as they think about sustainability are looking beyond responsibility and opportunity and seeing
disruption. This disruptive threat is pushing them forward and yielding transformational change. Maritime companies are entering a new way of thinking where
measuring what you manage and managing what you measure frankly is not enough… To address the problems facing shipping will require entirely new thinking.”

The programme comprises four presentations:

“You don’t travel to the future, you create it” Kirsi Tikka, Executive Vice President, Global Marine, ABS

“Digitalization and energy storage: the technologies changing the maritime sector” Rune Braastad, Vice President Marine Oil and Gas Services, ABB

“Disruptions attacking the Marine Industry” Willie Wagen, Director, Market Innovation Wärtsilä Marine Solutions

“Disruptions benefitting the Marine Industry” Stein Kjølberg, Global Sales Director – Hull Performance Solutions, Jotun

The discussion will be chaired by Birgit Liodden, director, Nor-Shipping.

The Motorship will be presenting photo and soundbite highlights from the event in the blog below, which will start at 1500 UK time today.
