SmartSea and Insight announced as sponsors of London International Shipping Week 2025
London International Shipping Week 2025 (LISW25) is delighted to announce SmartSea as a silver sponsor and Insight as a bronze sponsor of this year’s globally recognised event. Together with Hewlett Packard Enterprise (HPE), the two companies are hosting an exclusive Executive Breakfast Briefing that will explore how the maritime industry can adopt aviation’s gold standards of precision and efficiency.
The roundtable event, titled “Precision at the Port: Bringing Aviation Standards to Marine Operations”, will bring together senior leaders from the maritime and technology sectors to share practical, OPEX-driven solutions that deliver measurable results in as little as 12 to 18 months.
