In this episode of the Maritime SoftwareHub - The People Podcast, Callum Beaumont speaks with Todd Allen, Managing Director at NAVTOR, about his journey into the maritime technology space and what it means to lead a regional arm of a truly global organisation. They explore how passage planning and digital routing tools have evolved in recent years, and how modern navigation software is changing the way crews and operators make decisions onboard.
Todd also shares what day-to-day life looks like as Managing Director of NAVTOR USA, including how he has built and managed a distributed team across the country and the lessons learned from making a remote structure work in practice. The conversation covers the broader challenges and benefits of operating within a global organisation, as well as how to approach selling complex software solutions into the maritime market.
Looking ahead, Todd offers his perspective on the trends and shifts that will shape the future of navigation, routing, and maritime software more broadly, making this a must-listen for anyone following the digitalisation of the maritime industry.
