BIMCO to launch Maritime Digitalisation Network

BIMCO is preparing to launch a new Maritime Digitalisation Network. The initiative will bring the global shipping community together. Its goal is to speed up digital transformation across the maritime sector.

The network will act as an open forum. Members will exchange ideas. They will share real-world experiences. They will discuss what works—and what does not. They will also work together on practical solutions.

BIMCO wants to create a space that drives innovation. It aims to open new business opportunities. It also seeks to strengthen cooperation across the maritime value chain.

The network will host regular discussions and events. It will also run knowledge-sharing sessions. Members will learn about new digital tools and technologies. These insights will help improve efficiency and sustainability in shipping.

Planned focus areas include:

• Electronic bills of lading

• Voyage optimisation, including Just-in-Time arrivals and Blue Visby

• Vessel performance and optimisation tools

• Digital contracts, including charter parties and management agreements

• Paperless trade initiatives to simplify processes

BIMCO aims to make digital adoption easier. It wants benefits shared across the industry. The network will support a smoother move toward fully digital operations.
