Humble beginnings

Within just a few months of the company being registered in 2016, NexusOcean had secured its first major order. This was the break the young business was looking for and provided an opportunity for NexusOcean to prove its capabilities. A decade on, and that initial client remains a loyal NexusOcean customer—a relationship that represents one of the company’s core values from the start: trust.

Rising demand

By 2017, NexusOcean was operating out of an office in the port city of Vlissingen. By then, the team had expanded to three people. It was during this time that NexusOcean’s partnership with EMC Connect provided valuable support as demand for NexusOcean’s solutions grew and its client base expanded. In 2023, continued growth saw the company open a new office in Middelburg—a reflection of the company’s development that provides it with the opportunity for continued expansion in the coming years.

NexusOcean: True to its principles

NexusOcean founder and MD Richard de Wit said, “Much has changed in the ten years since NexusOcean began its journey. Both the technology and the maritime landscape have altered significantly. At NexusOcean, we continue to adapt our solutions to match these shifting requirements while remaining true to the principles that have guided us from the start.

“We continue to build long-term relationships based on trust with our partners and customers alike. And, with the continued commitment of our people, we remain determined to keep moving forward.”

A New Chapter Begins

“For us, this anniversary is about much more than simply marking the first ten years of NexusOcean. It’s about celebrating the customers, partners, colleagues, and friends who have been with us along the way. To all those people who have placed their trust in us, I would like to say a huge thank you for being part of our story. I look forward to continuing to work together with you as NexusOcean looks towards tomorrow—the next chapter starts now.”
