Steve Capper: From Construction to Carnival Cruises

Tom speaks with Steve Capper, Chief Digital & Information Officer at Carnival UK, whose brands include Cunard and P&O Cruises. Formerly a multi-award-winning leader in the engineering and construction world, Capper explains how the leap into the cruise industry revealed unexpected parallels, from large-scale refits to complex logistics, but with one major difference: everything moves.

Steve lifts the lid on the tech that powers modern cruise ships, including on-board datacentres, satellite-enabled upgrades, AI-enhanced customer experience and sustainability efforts like water generation at sea. He also talks leadership, resilience and why running IT in a 24/7 global business means “two of everything," just like Noah’s Ark.
