DIGITAL SHIP @ NOR-SHIPPING, OSLO 
Wednesday June 4, 2025

The conference is taking place at the Conference | Thon Hotel Arena | Thon Hotels next to the Nor-Shipping venue. The address is Nesgata 1, 2004 Lillestrøm.

Nor-Shipping's theme for 2025 is 'Future Proof' - and we'll also be exploring what that means with our Digital Ship forum held during Nor-Shipping week. Do we have a digital and data infrastructure which can evolve as requirements evolve, or something which is really difficult to modify? Also we'll look at developments with satellite communications services, particularly LEO.

  • What does "maturity" look like in maritime digital technology implementations - and are we getting there?

  • What are the most interesting new technology developments - LEO satellites, web based software, managing shipboard software remotely

  • What are the best ways to use digital technology to better manage vessel performance / decarbonisation?

  • What are the biggest cybersecurity threats to shipping today, and how is the threat picture changing?
