From Big Questions To Innovation - A Look Back At This Season's Conversations

The ocean is unpredictable, but smarter digital routing is transforming how ships navigate it to ensure safety of passengers, crew and cargo. 

From real-time weather insights to automated voyage  optimization, routing services are evolving to help vessels save fuel, reduce emissions, and improve safety at sea. And as progress accelerates, we’re asking the big question: What technologies will shape the future of ocean routing? 

In this season’s finale, Michael Greavette and Mark Streuper from ABB’s Routing Solutions and Services in Marine & Ports division join Fran to explore how data and automation are reshaping navigation today, and what’s coming next.

Re-Routing The Seas - From Data To Delivery

In our previous episode, we explored how fiber is being used in new and unexpected ways beyond traditional paper production.

Today, we’re continuing that story, looking at how the same spirit of innovation is transforming the entire pulp and paper industry.

For decades, this sector has quietly been a pioneer in bioenergy and biomaterials. Through its evolution from traditional manufacturing sites into modern, self-sufficient biorefineries - and supported by active, long-term forestry that enables the shift from fossil fuels to sustainable energy - it has become one of the world’s largest producers and users of renewable energy from wood-based residues.

But what does this transformation mean for the future of energy, sustainability, and even new revenue opportunities?

That’s exactly what we’re exploring in this episode, as we ask: How is the pulp, paper, and fiber industry creating future value through biomass, biofuels, and circular innovation?

Joining the discussion are:  
Gustav Melin, CEO and CFO at Mantex AB 
Wilson Monteiro, Business Line Manager for Pulp, Paper, and Fibre at ABB  
Roger Östlin, Head of Sustainable Fuels at SCA and CEO of the SCA–ST1
