Navigating the digital world
MARITIME 4.0 | The business world is becoming ever more “connected” as the digital revolution (Maritime 4.0) drives technological developments with exponential speed.

Many traditional enterprises are threatened with extinction, and those that ignore the changes in technology do so at their peril, as they run the risk of failing to secure a successful future. Shipping companies can look to industry leaders to keep up with digital developments, says maritime IT and communications correspondent Julie Ann Chan, who spoke with the Danish shipping company Maersk Line about its experience with the digital revolution.
