The story
We have co-founded oceanis in early 2019 and continuously support the venture throughout its launch phases with product, design, and engineering consulting. We have advised on the initial MVP scope and guided the management through its initial financing rounds. Oceanis and TrueNode are working as an integrated team. TrueNode not only supports product development but also with senior management recruiting to build a sound team.
Traditional lenders left shipping
SME ship owners are struggling to get access to new and diverse capital. Alternative debt providers are entering the market and are fragmenting the market.
Geographical shift of debt providers to Asia
Majority of SME owners are based in Greece, Germany and Norway where local banks are reducing or exiting shipping completely. Finding new financing sources has been a challenge.
About
Oceanis is on a mission to provide every ship-owner easy access to diversified global financing sources and a transparent overview of best-possible terms. Owners are equipped with a modern solution to source required funding and built lasting relationships with global financing institutions. Debt providers are provided with access to the primary and secondary markets.
