Global Maritime & Youwind: Engineering Expertise Meets Smarter Wind Development
In offshore wind, success is built on precision. Every early decision, whether related to layout, foundations, or electrical design, has long-term consequences for performance, cost, and risk. That’s why companies leading the industry rely not only on deep expertise, but also on tools that allow them to act on that expertise with clarity and speed.
This is where the collaboration between Global Maritime and Youwind finds its strength.
A Shared Understanding of Industry Challenges
Global Maritime has long been recognized as a trusted partner in offshore and engineering consultancy. Working alongside some of the industry’s leading players, their teams bring hands-on experience and technical depth to complex offshore projects.
At Youwind, the approach is different, but complementary. Instead of consultancy, the focus lies in providing a SaaS platform built around the real-world needs of wind professionals. A tool designed not in isolation, but shaped by the same challenges developers, engineers, and consultants face every day.
This shared understanding created a natural alignment between the two teams.
Turning Insight into Better Decisions
At the core of this collaboration lies a simple but powerful idea: combining engineering expertise with the combined digital tools & software leads to better decisions.
Global Maritime’s strength in marine engineering, consultancy and their own suite of proprietary software provides the knowledge and judgment needed to interpret complex offshore conditions. Youwind’s platform complemented this by enabling access to its database and producing fast, structured analysis across multiple scenarios.
Together, they allow teams to explore options more efficiently, compare alternatives, and refine designs with confidence.
As José María Gómez, Country Manager at Global Maritime, explains:
“It has been very positive working with Youwind. They have listened carefully and understood our needs, implementing solutions that allow us to provide the best service to our clients. With Youwind, we can quickly analyse multiple scenarios, which helps us focus on different stages and phases of development for a potential offshore wind area.”
A Feedback Loop That Drives Improvement
One of the defining aspects of this partnership is its collaborative nature.
Global Maritime has taken a proactive role in shaping how they use the platform, regularly providing feedback and requesting new functionalities that align with their project needs. This ongoing dialogue has proven highly valuable, not only for their own workflows, but also for the continuous improvement of Youwind’s platform.
Rather than a one-way relationship, it has become a true feedback loop. For Youwind, this kind of engagement is truly important.
As Anna Rivera, co-founder and CEO of Youwind, reflects:
“Global Maritime is one of our clients that looks with a detailed eye on what is available and is always good at keeping us sharp and applying improvements to the platform as needed from our clients. This feedback is most valuable to us, as it helps us better engage with client needs and use those insights, alongside our own roadmap, to continuously improve our platform.”
Building Smarter Foundations for Offshore Wind
The collaboration between Global Maritime and Youwind highlights something fundamental about the future of offshore wind development: progress depends on integration. Not just integration of systems, but integration of perspectives, engineering expertise, digital capabilities, and real-world feedback working together. And as projects grow in scale and complexity, this kind of collaboration will continue to play a key role in shaping a more efficient and resilient energy future.
