The arrival of the pandemic put as many as 100 million direct tourism jobs at risk globally, creating a big need for innovative job creation in the travel sector.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin: 0cm; margin-bottom: .0001pt; text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 9.0pt; color: #7f7f7f;\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin: 0cm; margin-bottom: .0001pt; text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 10.5pt; color: black;\">According to Zurab Pololikashvili, Secretary-General of the United Nations World Tourism Organisation (UNWTO): \u201cIn a sector that employs 1 in 10 people globally, harnessing innovation and digitalisation, embracing local values, and creating decent jobs for all\u2014especially for youth, women, and the most vulnerable groups in our societies\u2014could be at the forefront of tourism\u2019s recovery.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin: 0cm; margin-bottom: .0001pt; text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 9.0pt; color: #7f7f7f;\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin: 0cm; margin-bottom: .0001pt; text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 10.5pt; color: black;\">Network marketing travel business, goORTUS, is just such an organisation. goORTUS has identified 2021 as the ideal time to launch its revolutionary digital travel platform which seeks to reignite the world of travel by putting the power into the hands of its \u2018modern-day pioneers\u2019 \u2013 or Founding Members.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin: 0cm; margin-bottom: .0001pt; text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 9.0pt; color: #7f7f7f;\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin: 0cm; margin-bottom: .0001pt; text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 10.5pt; color: black;\">\u201cThere really is no better time to launch goORTUS than now,\u201d explained goORTUS co-founder, Craig Browne. \u201cCovid-19 has reset the travel industry, providing newcomers with a fresh start to re-jump international tourism. Every single established travel organisation has been pulled back to zero. The pandemic has levelled the playing field and we now have an equal chance to launch the world back into travel.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin: 0cm; margin-bottom: .0001pt; text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 9.0pt; color: #7f7f7f;\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin: 0cm; margin-bottom: .0001pt; text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 10.5pt; color: black;\">Browne said, from a job creation perspective, goORTUS is the ideal solution: \u201cHundreds of millions of jobs have been lost, and we now have a situation where people with a background in tourism are looking for a way to earn income. goORTUS is the chance to become an entrepreneur while simultaneously enjoying the benefits of travel. I truly believe there are two choices in life; go out and build your own dreams; or go out and someone will pay you to build theirs. We\u2019re putting the power back in the people\u2019s hands by saying start your own travel industry, earn your income and build your own dreams!\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin: 0cm; margin-bottom: .0001pt; text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 9.0pt; color: #7f7f7f;\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin: 0cm; margin-bottom: .0001pt; text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 10.5pt; color: black;\">The decision to launch in October 2021 also hinged on the ongoing lockdown restrictions and a lack of travel opportunities the past few months. As Browne explains: \u201cWe have a world of \u2018couch travellers\u2019 who\u2019ve spent months dreaming of getting out and travelling the world again. It\u2019s time to capture that slice of the pie and give people, of all means, the chance to explore.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin: 0cm; margin-bottom: .0001pt; text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 9.0pt; color: #7f7f7f;\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin: 0cm; margin-bottom: .0001pt; text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 10.5pt; color: black;\">goORTUS uses one of the most technologically-advanced eCommerce systems that gives users direct access to travel-related products at highly competitive rates.
