Acer, the fourth largest vendor in the global IT market (source: Gartner data, 4Q 2006), today announces the signing of a partnership agreement with Yamaha Motor Co., Ltd., becoming the Official Sponsor of Yamaha Factory Racing Team.
"Acer is a high-performance company with ambitious achievement goals, and, like Yamaha, we aim to compete among the best in the world. Our new association with Yamaha reflects this Acer spirit of excellence," said Krishna Murthy, General Manager of Acer Middle East.
The Yamaha Factory Racing Team has been particularly successful over the past few seasons in the MotoGP World Championships thanks to the superiority and design of its highly competitive and reliable motorbikes as well as the implementation of winning race strategies.
The agreement, which will initially cover the next two seasons, will see the Acer brand placed on both the motorbikes and on the race suits of Valentino Rossi and Colin Edwards, as well as all pit crew member uniforms working in the box and on all transport vehicles of the team.
Cutting edge innovation and technology have always characterized the worlds of motor racing and Information Technology. The union between a dynamic and innovative brand such as Acer and a prestigious and powerful brand such as Yamaha cannot but enhance the levels of excellence of both companies.
