Great technology doesn't automatically find its place at sea. We help innovators understand the maritime landscape, shape the right proposition and build the connections that turn ambition into adoption.
+65 is Singapore's international calling code. To us, it represents a direct line into one of the world's most influential maritime hubs — where shipowners, managers, technology providers and global trade meet.
That is the thinking behind plus65.ai: grounded in how maritime actually works, and built to help the next wave of technology companies enter the industry with clarity, relevance and confidence.
Find where you fitMaritime has unique buyers, workflows, commercial cycles and operational constraints. We help translate innovative solutions into meaningful opportunities for the people who run ships and fleets.
Assess use cases around maritime supplier payments, port services, procurement and cross-border workflows — without assuming generic fintech models will simply transfer.

plus65.ai draws on extensive maritime executive experience. Our perspective spans the operator side of ship management, maritime engineering and ICT, digital applications, APAC commercial development and AI consulting.
That combination matters: knowing not only what technology can do, but how a ship is operated, how maritime organisations evaluate risk and how relationships and business cases translate into decisions.
