Increasing the competitiveness of Greek Shipping enterprises through the adoption of technology and digital solutions

About this project

<p>Greece is the leading player in the shipping industry in terms of fleet size and value, however it is well known that Greek shipping companies have not yet embraced the use of technology. There is a huge amount of potential value to be gained, both in terms of cost and efficiency, that is not being realized at the moment. This is due to a combination of factors – lack of education on the problem that needs to be solved, lack of awareness of the solutions that are available and lack of time to spend assessing these projects.&nbsp;<br> As leading experts in maritime technology, as well as having a significant history in the Greek maritime market, where they have established strong relationships with almost all of the major companies – Oriani is perfectly positioned to help address these issues.&nbsp;<br> By identifying companies with the right technology for the very specific Greek market, and then by leveraging their relationships to ensure that the right shipping companies send the right people to meet and see the technologies on offer – Oriani can help move more and more companies towards digitalization – which means most importantly, to take that first step and understand first-hand how technology can help develop their businesses and increase their efficiency.&nbsp;</p> <p>Oriani will first identify the right digital solutions from the donor states, and then they will bring those solutions in Greece to present them to the Greek shipping companies in a single event.&nbsp;</p> <p>The project aim is to increase the networking opportunities between donor state digital technology providers and the Greek shipping companies, increase the awareness of the solutions that are available, continue to educate the customers where needed and form new relationships to help these companies on their transformation journey.</p>
