With the support of the French Chamber of Commerce in Singapore and the French Maritime Cluster in Singapore, SMIB students from ESSEC Business School have produced a report on recommendations on how French companies can match Singapore’s maritime strategy on the long run.

After the first event organised at ESSEC Campus in February, students emphasised on the main challenges the industry is facing along with executives coming from all sectors: Environment, New technology and Education.

Taking into account the feedback received from the stakeholders, students worked hard to deliver a final report which established recommendations to answer those challenges and help French companies to be at the forefront of maritime industry.

The meeting was also an opportunity for Maritime industry players to network over a great breakfast.

Supported Event

• Start We Up by Naval Group

Naval Group, one of the world leaders in shipbuilding, is seeking innovative technologies that will power smart ships in the near future. The vision is to reduce the need for independent manual interventions, through remotely controlled and centralised systems that can do more with fewer operators. Additionally, we wish to achieve a reliable system architecture that is sustainable when scaled across future smart ships. New technologies bring both opportunities and threats to ships of the future and require us to re-think the reliability of ships in terms of security and safety. The inaugural Start We Up - The Innovation Challenge held in Singapore invites regional startups with deep technology expertise that can enhance the system-operator interaction, security and safety on our smart ships.
