We are proud to announce the major sponsorship of Sail Team BCN, Spain's newest challenger for the 37th America's Cup in the Women's and Youth divisions.

This partnership brings together two organizations with a shared vision of pushing the boundaries in sailing and contributing to a sustainable future.

Foundation⁰ aligns perfectly with the Sail Team BCN's ambition to lead in the world of sailing while promoting sustainable practices. Sponsorship will not only support the team's challenge for the America's Cup but also enable them to do so in a manner that underscores the potential of zero-emission technologies.

The sponsorship will aid in the development of Sail Team BCN's campaign base in Barcelona, the purchase and operation of a state-of-the-art AC40 race boat, and the recruitment of promising young and female athletes from across Spain. Foundation⁰ will also work together with Sail Team BCN to develop and implement several sustainability actions and practices across the team, the base and all the events. This partnership is a testament to Foundation⁰'s belief in the potential of renewable energy within competitive sailing and the need for a sustainable future.

Sail Team BCN, led by legendary Catalan sailor Guillermo Altadill and experienced international team manager Stewart Hosford, is set to make waves in the sailing world while promoting a more ecologically friendly approach to the sport.
