Support sailing and water protection

The anchoring of MG-TECH on the sea coast, sailing and the values of surpassing oneself and resilience linked to its high-level practice are part of the Group's DNA.

Sailing is the symbol of risk-taking, daring, travel, performance ... this notion of adventure blends perfectly with our desire to accelerate our export business.

  • Why did you choose the skipper Benjamin Dutreux?

    We are proud to support this young, committed skipper. He firmly supports the Water Family association, whose mission is to educate about the preservation of water, our health and all living things. From 2018, Benjamin takes "Flaggy" the mascot of the Water family aboard his Imoca. As a partner, we also support this association – “Du flocon à la vague” - through our open days where the children of MG Tech employees will be made aware of the preservation of our planet through games.

    ALL BEHIND BENJAMIN DUTREUX!

  • Benjamin, sponsor of the Water Family association

    Since 2009, the Water Family has been developing educational actions for schools and businesses to raise awareness of the crucial issue of water management and the protection of our health by educating and promoting good practices. Their facilitators were able to intervene during our family open days to raise awareness among the children of MG Tech employees.
