Julien Mizrachi is seeking sponsorship for his participation in the 2017 Mini Transat race across the Atlantic Ocean. The Mini Transat is a solo, non-stop sailing race covering 3,500 miles from France to the Caribbean. Sponsoring the project offers extensive visibility through media coverage of the race and opportunities to promote company values like commitment and adventure. Sponsorship funding would support boat preparation and equipment for the race as well as visibility elements like logos on sails and clothing during the 2017 sailing season.

1. Mini Transat 2017
Sponsorship proposal
Julien Mizrachi

2. Summary of the project
– This document presents the opportunity to sponsor my project to participate to the Mini Transat 2017
– The Mini Transat is a very exciting offshore sailing race across the Atlantic ocean, in solo, without assistance on a fast
modern 6.5-meter boat
– Sponsoring a sailing project offers an extensive visibility and allows to associate your company with the strong values
of sailing as well as to share an outstanding adventure with your employees and clients
– The sponsorship goes beyond the Mini Transat and would cover the complete season 2017, including trainings and
several races on the Atlantic coast, offering great visibility along the year for the sponsors
– For a complete budget of 60,000€ for the season the boat would be designed with your company’s colours and name
as you would be the official sponsor. Smaller contributions would also allow great visibility on-shore and off-shore, on-
line and off-line, across the various events.
– The media coverage has been impressive for the past editions and the plan for next season will offer wide coverage
once again
– In addition, sponsoring could allow your company to claim tax relief in France and in the UK
