Live at SMM 2018: Stefano Poli discusses Inmarsat’s new IoT platform

Stefano Poli, Vice President of Business Development, Inmarsat Maritime

SEPTEMBER 8, 2018 — The maritime industry is undergoing a digital transformation. Ship operators are looking for more insight into their operations to drive efficiency, productivity, and meet regulatory compliance. That’s particularly important as new EU MRV (Monitoring, Reporting, Verification) and IMO DCS (Data Collection System) emission regulations go into effect starting January 1, 2019.

What’s critical in all this is not only reliable, high-speed connectivity between the ship and shore, but also an easy to use platform for shipowners to quickly access and analyze real-time onboard data. Inmarsat thinks it has the answer. At SMM 2018, it announced a new strategic partnership with Danelec Marine in the development of Fleet Data, a new Internet of Things (IoT) service.

Marine Log sat down with Stefano Poli, Vice President of Business Development at Inmarsat Maritime, at SMM 2018 in Hamburg to discuss Fleet Data and how shipowners can use this new IoT platform to transform their businesses.
