Since its establishment in 1995, the Esimit Europa project has been proudly promoting a common European identity and the importance of cooperation through the unifying power of sport.

Our multinational crew from 11 European countries achieved 39 victories in 39 races and set 6 course records along the way with the Esimit Europa 2 yacht, while attaining an impressive global media exposure of 1.8 billion people through its activities.

We are grateful that, in addition to outstanding sport results, our mission, which is to connect all Europeans, and our endeavours in finding unique ways to promote cooperation and strengthen European values, have been recognised by the European Commission, European Parliament and Council of Europe. So far, we have also been honoured with the endorsement of 12 European heads of state, with the most recent support being that of Frank-Walter Steinmeier, President of the Federal Republic of Germany; Emmanuel Macron, President of the French Republic; Alexander Van der Bellen, Federal President of the Republic of Austria; and Rumen Radev, President of the Republic of Bulgaria.
