STA at SMW #01: Midweek Reflections from Singapore Maritime Week

In this midweek reflection recorded live at Singapore Maritime Week, Marius Suteu and Sam Somerville-Ryan share their early observations from across the event. Drawing on conversations with startups, operators, and industry stakeholders, they explore a central tension: innovation is everywhere — but adoption remains a challenge. The discussion focuses on the gap between building new technologies and deploying them in real-world maritime environments, and why many solutions struggle to gain traction despite strong intent across the industry.
