Blacklane will establish a Chauffeur Training Academy in Saudi Arabia to ensure world-class service quality. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This initiative is expected to significantly contribute to the Kingdom\u2019s Vision 2030 by creating new job opportunities and fostering economic diversification.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Michael Mueller, CEO of TASARU, stated<\/strong>, &#8220;The investment in Blacklane marks an important step forward in our commitment to bringing sustainable mobility solutions to Saudi Arabia.
