Tor Anders Høksås, Passionate about changing the world through technology

I’m Tor Anders

A curious mind with a big heart for the sea and the maritime industry with a relentless drive for innovation. For over a decade, I’ve been working in the global maritime industry, constantly exploring how technology can transform the way we work, connect, and grow.

Today, I work with innovation and business development, where my focus is on pushing boundaries — from digital transformation to bold, forward-thinking partnerships that bring real value to the industry. I’ve had the chance to work with incredible teams at companies like Inmarsat (Viasat), Carmar (Perez & CIA), Kuehne + Nagel, and Seven Seas Group, driving growth, improving customer experience, and expanding global reach.

I hold a master’s in management and Analytics for Business, along with a Bachelor’s in Shipping Management — but what really drives me is the power of ideas. Whether it’s on stage at a conference or across the table in a strategy session, I thrive on discussing meaningful concepts, challenging the status quo, and shaping a smarter, more sustainable maritime future.

Technology isn’t just a tool, it’s a mindset. And I believe the maritime industry is on the brink of something big.
