Hello, I'm a nautical science graduate from Croatia's Faculty of Maritime Studies, with an unlimited Master's license. Throughout my career, I've gained extensive experience sailing on a variety of ships, including cargo vessels, ferries, and cruise ships. I've worked with well-known companies like the Mediterranean Shipping Company (MSC) and Carnival Corporation. While at sea, I observed that the maritime transportation industry tends to be traditional and slow to embrace innovations. Surprisingly, navigational technology in this sector hasn't seen significant upgrades in the past three decades. As a result, the tools onboard ships appear outdated, creating a noticeable contrast with the modern smartphones that crew members carry in their pockets. In April 2021, after accumulating thirty years of invaluable experience, I took the initiative to establish ELNAV, a pioneering company dedicated to researching and developing advanced technologies aimed at enhancing navigation safety. My goal is to bridge the gap between traditional maritime practices and the advancements seen in other industries. I am committed to bringing transformative changes that will revolutionize the safety and efficiency of maritime transportation. Feel free to reach out if you're interested in navigating a future of innovation and safety in maritime transport. Let's connect and explore potential collaborations!
