Splash247 has published the SplashTech Digital Market Report 2026, a new magazine examining how technology is reshaping the way shipping operates, competes and makes decisions.

Built around original interviews, industry data and practical case studies, the publication moves beyond hype to explore what actually works both onboard and ashore. The magazine covers artificial intelligence, digital return on investment, interoperability, data ownership, cyber risk, workforce skills, consolidation, edge computing and the challenge of scaling technology across fleets.

The topics reflect pressures shipping companies face as digitalisation spreads across the industry: owners must weigh technology spending against measurable returns, navigate growing regulatory and cyber security expectations, and ensure systems from different vendors can work together. The report's inclusion of data ownership and workforce skills also points to ongoing debates over who controls ship-generated data and how crews and shore staff are trained to use new tools.

Its focus is firmly commercial and operational: where technology saves money, reduces risk, improves decisions and creates lasting value.

SplashTech brings together leading shipowners, technologists and maritime executives to assess what matters next for shipping worldwide.
