Our take
The Signal Group specialises in providing technology, data and commercial solutions to the shipping industry. Signal Ocean, Signal Maritime, and Signal Ventures make up the group.
The Signal Ocean Platform is driven by AI and provides charterers, brokers, and owners with shipping data. This enables them to make better commercial decisions and provides a competitive edge.
Signal Maritime is centred around commercial ship management and is a spin off from Thenamaris Ships Management. It is focused on providing responsive, high-performance, and sustainable commercial management for a growing, modern fleet.
With deep industry knowledge and a popular offering, Signal is having a big impact on maritime innovation. Aside from its own solutions, it has supported multiple start-ups in the shipping, supply chain and commodities space. The company has recently announced a partnership with Flagship Founders, and as part of this will be launching joint projects to help accelerate new venture development in the market.
