Athena, known for its technology network, will support Tappy Guide continued mission to enhance the lives of individuals with disabilities and senior citizens.
Anaheim, California – Athena Partners Strategy Group (APSG), a prominent firm specializing in government relations and technology representation, collaborates with Tappy Guide, an innovative smart mobility and transportation solution committed to improving the lives of individuals with disabilities and senior citizens.
Tappy Guide was born from the passion and dedication of founder, John Petrous. In 2017 when John's sister, Ann, who was born blind, encountered a distressing experience while using a ride-sharing service. A miscommunication led to Ann being dropped off at the wrong location, leaving her feeling lost and vulnerable.
It was this incident that sparked the realization: if this could happen to Ann, it undoubtedly had happened to others facing similar challenges. Tappy Guide emerged from this moment of insight, determined to be the beacon of support and empowerment for individuals with disabilities.
"Everyone should have the right to move with independence and confidence,” says Nick Stanton, Managing Partner at Athena Partners Strategy Group. “Through our collaboration with Tappy Guide, we see an unprecedented opportunity for our industry to offer essential assistance, ultimately enhancing the overall quality of life for those in need."
