The Maritime Innovation Committee is tasked by the RINA Council with identifying and assessing the impacts of new and evolving technologies on the membership and profession, and determining how the Institution should address them.
As such, it is the Institution’s ‘Think Tank’. It is authorised to act and speak on behalf of RINA in accordance with Council policies.
Have your say
The RINA Maritime Innovation Committee welcomes all members to raise and discuss matters relating to the committee’s work, areas of interest and responsibilities.
Naval architects have a responsibility to advance the art and science of ship, boat and yacht design. We are only limited by our imagination.
