The Volvo Ocean Race is the Mt Everest of sailing and one of the most extreme global sporting competitions. For the nine months of the 2008-2009 Volvo Ocean Race, the competing teams sailed over 37,000 nautical miles of the world’s most treacherous seas.
As the official supplier to the 2008-2009 Volvo Ocean Race, Volvo IT embarked on a “mission” to deliver a world-class IT platform for the race’s 11 stop-overs. Our Volvo IT crew crossed five continents, touching down in 11 different cities to deliver the necessary technology and support.
