Clydebuilt was formed to address the dereliction of opportunity on the Clyde, founded by executives with a wealth of experience gained in worldwide shipyards, offshore projects, design engineering, and product development. We have a coalescence of partners and stakeholders from diverse backgrounds including travel, hospitality, events, tourism, and education; complimenting the technical expertise already available.

In 2019 we started planning to construct the Dark Island residential cruise ship aligned with the UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) through policy and practice for sustainability and green initiatives, which will have minimum effect on the environment.

The Dark Island is designed and built to last at least 50 years, with the latest air handling filtration systems and environmental safety measure protocols.
