“Shipping Industry in Switzerland” if you mention this in the company of great shipping nations like Greeks, Asian or Scandinavians, they look at you with astonished eyes. The growth within the Zurich Shipping Network proves that this a community not to be overlooked; contributing expertise across all sectors of international shipping, from finance, maritime law, and regulations to propulsion and energy solutions. With our 120 year history as designers of the main propulsion technology for deep-sea merchant vessels, it is vital to be connected not only with direct customers but the shipping industry as a whole. That is reflected in the Zurich Shipping Network in an efficient, holistic way.”

Nautica Technologies is a Swiss robotics startup founded in 2024 developing autonomous
underwater robotic systems to transform maritime hull maintenance by proactively cleaning
and inspecting ship hulls, reducing fuel use, emissions, and operational costs with their AI-
powered technology.
___________________________
In April 2025 the IMO Marine Environment Protection Committee approved measures including a new fuel
standard for ships and a global pricing mechanism for emissions. Assuming these measures, including the new
greenhouse gas fuel intensity (GFI) standards, are formally adopted in October 2025, they will become
mandatory for ocean-going ships over 5,000 gross tons when they enter into force in 2027. We are
delighted to invite you to an event hosted by the Axpo group at their headquarters in Baden, Aargau,
covering this topic.
