London, UK, May 12, 2022. AXSMarine, a pioneer and market leader in the provision of advanced solutions for shipping professionals, took part in the Digital Progress Event. The event, organized by Binnacle, was created to support the shipbroking and chartering communities, and connect them with maritime software solution experts.

The all-day event contained panels and discussions on a range of issues facing the industry, including cooperation, collaboration, and partnerships. Key focus was placed on the challenges ahead of shipbrokers and charterers on the path of decarbonization and how digital programmes could be aligned to help cutting targets. The overall relationship process between user and supplier with its complexities between establishment, development and maintenance was also addressed.

AXSMarine, represented by its CCO, Steve Fletcher, took part in the opening panel discussing the adoption of digital and smarter solutions. Steve shared the lessons the company learned and the solutions it adopted in over 20 years of providing digital solutions for the industry. In the context of user and supplier relations, Steve said:

“We’ve invested heavily in our Account Management team – people on the ground that actually go and sit with clients, as opposed to talking with them over the screen. Even if you build software and make it as intuitive as possible, you will never solve everyone’s problems. So, it’s key when somebody has a specific need, that we find a way through our solutions.”

The event was further boosted by the presence of SEDNA, Carbon Trust, Osiris Consulting, and other leading industry names.

“The Digital Progress Event by Binnacle was a very productive convention. It was a pleasure to attend the panels with like-minded people focused on moving the digitalization of shipping further to the next level. We are grateful to the organizers for providing the opportunity help drive openness, collaboration and networking, which have always been key pillars in our journey”, added Steve.
