Vessul, the newly launched crew travel management technology
developed by TapTrip, has partnered with Blue Marine Foundation (Blue), a
charity dedicated to restoring the ocean to health.
Through the partnership, Vessul will support Blue’s mission
to bring at least 30 per cent of the world’s ocean under effective protection
and 70 per cent managed in a responsible way by 2030, according to COO Neil
Ruth.
“We fully intend to develop and expand this partnership and
are investigating tools that could generate a consistent revenue stream to
support the essential environmental work Blue is undertaking,” said Ruth.
Sara-Jane Skinner, head of partnerships at Blue, added: “I’m
really delighted that new companies like Vessul, who are reliant on the ocean
for business, are putting support systems in place to help protect the marine
environment, both financially and by helping raise awareness among their peers
from the get-go. The team behind Vessul and TapTrip is committing a percentage
of its bottom line to support our underwater world, and for that I commend
them. I look forward to growing the partnership and working with them over the
coming years.”
