Well-being award

Inmarsat has joined forces with Shell Shipping and Maritime and maritime digital consultancy Thetius to launch a new “Open Innovation Challenge” for start-ups and SMEs to identify technology that can benefit crew safety, health and well-being at sea at a moment when Covid-19 has exposed the welfare of seafarers to global scrutiny. The Open Innovation Challenge is looking for novel solutions that have the potential to improve crew safety and welfare across four challenge areas spanning deck safety, fatigue, administration reduction and overall well-being.
