Conrad Colman and MSIG Europe Renew Partnership for Fourth Year

After three years of collaboration, MSIG Europe and Conrad Colman are pleased to announce the renewal of their partnership for a fourth consecutive year as title partner. A strong and enduring association, now entering a new phase with Conrad’s participation in The Ocean Race Atlantic 2026, a crewed race marking a key milestone in his career.

Following an intense cycle that included the Vendée Globe 2025 and the Transat Café L’Or 2026, during which he formed a new duo with Mathieu Blanchard, Conrad Colman returns with a resolutely team-oriented challenge.

Shared Values at the Heart of the Partnership

Over the past three years, Conrad Colman and MSIG Europe have built a strong partnership rooted in deeply shared values. Knowledge sharing is reflected through the transmission of experience and a commitment to developing teams, while integrity guides every engagement, both at sea and on shore. Innovation remains central to the projects carried out together, whether sporting or technological.

This new chapter further strengthens this shared vision, with a collective and inclusive project that fully embodies these ambitions.

“We are delighted to continue supporting Conrad in the year ahead. This partnership, now firmly established over time, is taking on a new dimension with this crew-based project, which closely reflects the dynamics and challenges we face within our own organisation.”

A Shift Towards Crewed Racing

This season, Conrad Colman is evolving his sporting project by turning towards crewed sailing, an objective clearly stated at the beginning of the year. The Ocean Race Atlantic 2026 will mark his first race as skipper of a crew, building on the experience he gained during The Ocean Race Europe last year, where he sailed as part of Alan Roura’s team.

This new project highlights strong values of diversity, collaboration, and knowledge sharing, fully aligned with those promoted by MSIG Europe.

“For me, this represents the fulfilment of a childhood dream, as previous editions of this race inspired me to explore new horizons and take on new adventures. Today, I am delighted to welcome a new crew on board and to share our team-building journey with all MSIG Europe employees.”
