Sustainability is high on the UAE’s agenda, with COP28 due to be hosted here later in the year. In addition, the UAE has a long relationship with the sea and seafarers, continuing today in terms of trade and entertainment, so the study into the welfare of sailors and our seas holds a special place.
Hasan Jasem Al Nowais, Group Chief Executive Officer and Managing Director of M42, said: “At M42 we are excited to impactfully disrupt the global healthcare industry, transforming lives through innovation. This is a unique opportunity to discover in its truest sense our environment, as oceans are the largest ecosystem and the planet’s life support system.
“Committed to envisioning a future in which we empower the scientific and healthcare community, with not only the latest technology to optimize patient outcomes, but also robust knowledge-sharing, we are confident that the research will help unravel insights and ascertain interventions powered through AI based analytical platforms, proving to be beneficial in our steps towards climate action. My heartiest congratulations to Cdr. Abhilash Tomy on overcoming immense odds to support our endeavours in conserving our planet.”
Glad to be home after more than six months at sea, Abhilash added, “I am deeply grateful to Bayanat for sponsoring and supporting my passion and dreams. After successfully completing the Golden Globe Race 2022, I have realized that the opportunity to give back to the planet and scientific development is much bigger than what I set out to achieve. Having witnessed the impact of our actions on the oceans, I am proud to be part of this endeavour to carry out the first-of-its-kind water testing and sailor-health study.”
The Golden Globe Race was first held in 1968, with its 2022 edition seeing 16 participants attempt to sail non-stop around the world – a total distance of 30,000 miles, beginning in September. The race is so gruelling that currently, only two of the 16 competitors completed the race, after 7 months at sea, with another likely to finish during the second week of May, with the others finding conditions either too difficult or suffering excessive damage to their boats.
