As sea levels rise and land grows scarce, the ocean is no longer just a frontier—it’s a foundation. At WCFS2025 in Finland, Dr. Teemu Manderbacka unveiled bold visions for floating megastructures that may reshape how and where we live, work, and build. What´s the beef for maintenance in his vision?

The defence and military sector has always been a pioneer in technology adoption. From the jet engine to satellite communications, innovations often take shape in the armed forces before finding their way into civilian industries. Maintenance is no exception. The battlefield of the 21st century is no longer defined only by firepower and strategy, but also by the capacity to keep complex, mission-critical assets in constant readiness.
As artificial intelligence reshapes maintenance operations, the greatest challenge for leaders isn’t technological, but cultural. INSEAD Professor Gianpiero Petriglieri reveals how maintenance leaders can preserve humanity while embracing automation.
