SEAMLESS invites you to join the upcoming webinar “Dual Horizons: Remote Inland Operations & Autonomous Seagoing Vessels – technical, regulatory and human challenges”, taking place on 15 April 2026, from 10:00 to 11:00 CET.
As the maritime sector moves towards automation and remote operations, the conversation often centres on technology. However, the reality is more complex. While key technological components are already mature and proven, the transition from pilot projects to scalable, real-world operations depends equally on regulatory frameworks, organisational readiness, and human factors.
This webinar will explore the broader ecosystem required to enable remote and autonomous vessel operations at scale. It will address how operational models must evolve alongside technology, highlighting the importance of aligning technical solutions with legal structures, workforce adaptation, and seamless integration into existing logistics chains.
Bringing together experts from across the maritime and logistics sectors, the session will provide valuable insights into the challenges and opportunities shaping the future of remote and autonomous shipping across both inland and seagoing environments.
Preliminary agenda:
- Welcome and introduction – Tomasz Dowgielewicz (ALICE)
- Shaping the Future of Maritime Remote Solutions – Ville Vihervaara (Kongsberg)
- Beyond Technology: Scaling Remote Operations – Ghazaleh Kia and Nancy Scheijven (SEAFAR)
- Discussion session
- Wrap-up – Tomasz Dowgielewicz (ALICE)
Participants can register at this link.
Join us to explore what it truly takes to scale remote and autonomous vessel operations — not only technologically, but across the entire maritime ecosystem!
