Innovation Demo Day
September 1st, Hamburg
Innovation themes
This year we are looking for technology innovations in the following categories; we are looking at both digital and hardware based technologies.
Environment
We are looking for companies that make real money by slashing carbon, methane and other greenhouse gas emissions and fixing the oceans and waterways.
We are looking for technologies that focus on the capture, storage, and scaling adoption of alternative energy.
This ranges from energy storage, to carbon capture, energy efficient technologies and optimization solutions that can be applied to existing fleets to buy more time for us to clean up the environment.

Technology Type: Hardware and Software
Social Impact
As shipping transitions to a zero carbon future, no one should get left behind. In this category, we are seeking companies with solutions that support workers through the transition with consideration to education, training, re-skilling, and safety.
In this context, ‘workers’ apply to seafarers and port workers and land-based energy workers who will be involved in the production and handling of these fuels.

Governance and Risk Management
The integration of technology in risk management can help automate and streamline tasks such as risk identification, assessment, reporting, and mitigation.
This can reduce human errors, increase efficiencies and align risk management with organizational goals.
In this category we are looking for smart technologies that can automate controls, monitoring and processes, collect and analyze data, streamline decision making, and enhance compliance.

Digitised Supply Chain
Digitalising and automating the supply chain enables companies to improve supply chain efficiency, speed up processes, provide better insights, and cut down manual errors, which all help to reduce total acquisition costs. Good business!
In this category we are looking for solutions focusing on digital inventory management, scheduling and planning, digitalisation of trade and cargo documents, financing and working capital funding solutions, real time data exchange, route optimisation, and procurement.
