What are you looking forward to most about Oceanology International 2024?

It’s always nice to meet our partners from this ecosystem in person and meet new ones. We are also here to discuss the industry data challenges and how Seagate can work with ecosystem partners to solve them. And this year is even more exciting as we’ve partnered with ET Works, our technology partner. We are delighted to work with them and bring together the innovation in edge storage with our Lyve portfolio to the Energy marketplace. So, I’m personally looking forward to connecting with them in person.

The future of ocean-based ICT hinges on…

The ability to improve data transfer and time to data, and we’re looking forward to being an integral part and a game changer in the exciting future of ocean research.

Seagate will be exhibiting in the Oceanology International 2024 Ocean ICT Pavilion—powered by ON&T Magazine. You can find them at the Ocean ICT pavilion in S201 on the Oceanology floor to chat more about the ICT solutions for the ocean industry.
