Seaspan Shipyards has kicked in $75,000 to support the B.C. Tech Association's Digital Lift internship program that has been designed to draw new people into the tech sector. Seaspan's infusion — $75,000 spread over three years — will be used in part to diversify the pool of tech talent in the province to meet the looming demand for technology skills across sectors like the marine industry. "Advanced digital technologies such as artificial intelligence, 3-D visualization, and digital twinning are revolutionizing how we build and maintain ships," said Seaspan vice-president Dave Hargreaves. "Seaspan Shipyards is pleased to participate in the Digital Lift program, which will help develop tech talent that we will need in the future as the marine industry continues its exciting digital transformation." Advanced digital technologies and systems are a rapidly growing part of modern shipbuilding and ship repair and overhaul.
