Why Take on This Mission?
“The Volvo Ocean Race brings a lot of things to Rio that people love - sailing and everything related to the sea. It’s my pleasure to be part of the Volvo IT crew and help to prepare the marina to receive the boats and their crews that are coming soon. It is a unique experience to have people from many countries, different cultures, working around the clock to build the race village as fast as they can.”
