RightShip has announced the acquisition of Thynk Software’s maritime tech business, which will see 30 people join RightShip when the acquisition closes on 1 September.
Marlon Grech, Thynk’s founder and CEO, will now become RightShip’s first chief technology officer.
“This is a great opportunity for us at Thynk to solidify and develop our long-term relationship with RightShip. We have worked together for several years now and know each other well, and so for me and my Malta based team, this is a natural progression. We are all looking forward to the opportunities that will come our way as being part of the RightShip team,” commented Grech.
The company launched its innovative platform 1.5 years ago after working closely with Thynk.
“I am delighted that we can announce the acquisition of Thynk Software’s maritime tech business, and that Marlon and his team will join RightShip. This is a critical strategic development for RightShip as we gain our own in-house technology competence that will underpin our long-term growth objective of being an industry leading ESG focused digital maritime platform,” said Steen Lund, CEO of RightShip.
