Business Description: CMC Marine was founded in 2005 with the aim to offer a new generation of control and stabilizing systems meticulously designed and built. From the beginning the Company has invested considerably in R&D, in collaboration with Italy’s best universities, with shipyards’ technical departments and with technical partners. Through the years, CMC Marine has developed several innovative products: launched in 2008, Stabilis Electra was world’s first electrically actuated stabilizing system and was granted European Patent n° 2172394 in 2012. Since then, CMC Marine has kept investing in R&D relentlessly, releasing to the market several innovations: “Dia-Log” control software – which was granted an European patent in 2013 – followed by CMC’s unique integrated stabilizing and steering system. And a lot more is ready to be launched in the near future.

Business Description: Luxury at sea demands reliable connectivity - Superyachts and other large private vessels are meticulously outfitted to enjoy luxury at sea yet still pose unique connectivity challenges. Factors such as location, movement, and distance from shore-based cell towers can disrupt maritime connectivity. Zinwave Ltd can offer your guests continuous cellular connectivity throughout the voyage—from the dock to the top deck and back. Zinwave specialises in providing wireless coverage solutions, particularly for challenging environments like superyachts. Our technology, a distributed antenna system (DAS), ensures reliable mobile and Wi-Fi connectivity throughout your vessel, even within the metal structures that can block radio signals. This allows superyacht owners and guests to stay connected with high-speed voice and data services while at sea - Zinwave Ltd provides exceptional value with our genuinely future-ready, flexible, and scalable active DAS solution. We aim to be the preferred provider of world-class wireless coverage solutions, delivering the utmost value to mobile network operators, integrators, and end-users through our distinctive wideband technology.
