Blue Tech with the Washington Maritime Blue's Joshua Berger


'Blue Tech' is a term that gets used a lot in describing our upcoming generation of maritime industries...but what is it?

In this ongoing series, we're going to discuss what Blue Tech is, how we're seeing it manifest in the industry, and the people and players involved in innovating and exploring the processes and technology in our maritime sector.


This week's episode features an interview with Joshua Berger, Founder & CEO for Washington Maritime Blue. Founded to be a hub and cluster of innovation and initiatives working together, WA Maritime Blue is helping to propel the work of stakeholders from across the sectors of maritime in pioneering and producing the next generation of processes, policies and technology in the blue economy.
