ROCKWOOL Extends Its Partnership with SailGP Until 2032, a Historic Milestone

ROCKWOOL and SailGP: A Historic Partnership

In a groundbreaking move for both ROCKWOOL and the SailGP community, ROCKWOOL has extended its commitment to SailGP through to 2032. This agreement not only signifies a renewal of their existing multi-year partnership but also establishes it as the longest team partnership in the history of this exhilarating international racing league.

Since 2019, ROCKWOOL has been the title partner and operator of the Danish-flagged ROCKWOOL Racing SailGP Team. Over the years, their collaboration has gone beyond just branding; it has become a platform for innovation, performance, and sustainability in sailing. Andrew Thompson, CEO of SailGP, remarked, “ROCKWOOL’s belief in our vision has been instrumental in shaping SailGP into a truly global high-performance championship.”

Significant Achievements

One of the highlights of this partnership has been the remarkable speed performance by the ROCKWOOL Racing Team. The team achieved an astonishing record speed of 103.93 km/h during the German Grand Prix in Sassnitz, marking a historic milestone in sailing history. This performance not only showcases the technical prowess of the team but also sets a high standard within the sport itself.

Economically, ROCKWOOL has invested significantly in their activation platforms, which have engaged over 4,000 guests to experience the electrifying racing events firsthand through their global hospitality program. Furthermore, the Danish team clinched the SailGP Impact League title in the third season, showcasing their competitive edge and commitment to excellence.

Mirella Vitale, Senior Vice President of Marketing, Communications, and Public Affairs at ROCKWOOL, commented, “Over the past four seasons, this partnership has blossomed into something extraordinarily powerful. Together with SailGP, we’ve created a global platform that makes a tangible commercial impact in our key markets.” This is evident in how the heightened brand visibility has allowed ROCKWOOL to connect with thousands and engage employees across 38 countries.
