Shipping Podcast - this is where we talk about the coolest industry on the planet and help raise the maritime industry's profile.

167 Captain John Konrad, founder and CEO of gCaptain


Listen Later

Captain John Konrad is THE influencer in the maritime industry. He started the gCaptain, which is currently the largest media outlet in the maritime domain. 

John is equally interested in changing the narrative for the maritime industry as I am. We agree that we need to work together to create sustainable marketing for and about the maritime industry. 

No one speaks about Über in the Silicon Valley anymore, they talk about Flexport, and they talk about the maritime industry."

John is a big fan of Greta Thunberg; she says things people don't want to hear. But, that is what we also need to do; talk about the good and the bad in our industry. If we don't acknowledge the problems we have as an industry, then we cannot solve them - and become better.

We discuss so many things in this episode, I learned a lot, and I think John gave some real food for thoughts. 

What is your view? Give us a shout-out, we are on social media, and we each have a webpage where you can comment.

This is a discussion worth having.

Thank you for listening. 

Stay safe.
