SeaBuddy originated as an entry to the Maritime Diversity, Equity & Inclusion Lab, a joint innovation initiative sponsored by RightShip, Wilhelmsen, Thome Group, Hafnia, Rio Tinto and Anglo American. It was the winning concept with the vision to create a dedicated place for students, current and ex-seafarers to find connections and offer each other support, knowledge and mentoring. The platform is universally available and free to use.
