Hello Shipping Podcast lovers, the show is available on all podcast platforms. This is where we talk about the coolest industry on the planet and help raise the maritime industry's profile.  

The shipping industry is the backbone of international trade, contributing to globalisation and development, yet we are the invisible industry. The people within the industry make the world go around; they are maritime professionals – strong characters with an interesting background. I meet them, and we talk about the future of the shipping industry and what's happening right now.

In cyberspace since 2015.

At the Sea Traffic Management Conference in Venice in September, I found myself having the opportunity to speak to an expert in the field of the blockchain, also the point of contact between IBM and Maersk when it comes to this technology, so I couldn't help myself but to record our conversation. And Norbert was up for it! 

So, all the questions you might have, I had the opportunity to put! Why is this so revolutionary? Is it "only" interesting for the container industry? When can we expect to see this IRL? 

We touch upon subjects like diversity, recruitment, criminality and bananas, just en passé. What do you think? Is it as cool as you imagined? Let me know what you think!
