Soren Andersen from Universal Marine Medical appointed CEO of ZeroNorth

ZeroNorth, a recognised pioneer in maritime digital transformation, announces a leadership transition as it prepares for its next phase of development and

profitable growth.

Since its founding about five years ago, ZeroNorth has rapidly established itself as an industry frontrunner, servicing 6,000 vessels, with a global presence with offices in six locations, and a talented workforce of 550 people. Under the visionary leadership of Soren Meyer, ZeroNorth has grown from an ambitious idea to a market leader, driving innovation and inspiring both customers and the organisation to embrace its mission.

As ZeroNorth enters a new stage of growth, the Board of Directors, in collaboration

with Soren Meyer, has determined that the company’s evolving focus requires a new

CEO profile. Accordingly, Soren Meyer will step down as CEO, and the Board is

pleased to announce the appointment of Soren Andersen, a distinguished executive

with a proven record of scaling maritime software and service companies as well as

25 years of experience from the shipping industry.

Soren Andersen joins ZeroNorth following successful tenures as CEO of Unimed

Maritime Solutions and StormGeo, both scale-up companies, with StormGeo being a

maritime software and service company like ZeroNorth. At StormGeo, Soren

Andersen secured profitable growth and established himself as a leader renowned

for developing organisations and delivering results through his teams. His deep

sector expertise, combined with hands-on experience in fleet management and

implementing fleet-wide fuel and CO2 reduction initiatives, positions him ideally to

guide ZeroNorth through its next chapter.

Christian Ingerslev, Chair, ZeroNorth: "On behalf of the Board of Directors, I am

delighted to welcome Soren Andersen to ZeroNorth. With a proven track record of

leading scale-up companies with a clear focus on customer value, combined with his

deep sector knowledge, he is an excellent addition to our team. I would also like to

express our gratitude to Soren Meyer for his visionary leadership in developing

ZeroNorth from an idea into a profitable market leader servicing 6,000 vessels and

with 550 employees. Achieving such success in a start-up environment is no small

feat.”

Soren Andersen, incoming CEO: “ZeroNorth is born digital, which puts the company

in a unique position to support the shipping industry through the significant

technological, political and regulatory changes the industry is facing. With a strong

product offering and one of the largest internal development engines in the

industry, ZeroNorth is a highly attractive partner for shipping companies focused on

leadership within efficiency and AI. I’m honoured that the Board of Directors has

chosen me to lead ZeroNorth after Soren Meyer’s impressive work taking the

company to what it is today.”

Soren Meyer, CEO, ZeroNorth: “I am incredibly proud of how far we have come with

ZeroNorth and deeply grateful for the journey. It has been a joy working alongside

such inspiring and talented people. My heartfelt thanks go out to our customers and

partners for putting their trust in our vision to make global trade green and

supporting us every step of the way. As I hand over the baton of leading ZeroNorth,

I want to wish Soren and the team all the very best in this next chapter.”

With this transition, ZeroNorth reaffirms its commitment to driving maritime

innovation and delivering value to its partners, customers, and stakeholders

worldwide.
