MEO's partnership is also technological, guaranteeing all the communications and connectivity essential to the logistics of a race of this size and in this type of region. MEO provides the voice and data communications center for the entire event, mobile internet and wi-fi for the press, the television service for broadcasting the race and technical support during the three days of the event. 4G mobile coverage has also been reinforced to ensure communication between the cars in competition and the support cars.
The Technology aspect is combined with the Proximity and Territory pillars that guide Altice Portugal's operations. This race makes an important contribution to the regional economy and is a tourist attraction along the route of the competition. With great international prestige, the event, organized by Club Sports da Madeira, counts on the participation of national and regional champions and is a living poster for all Portuguese in general and Madeirans in particular.
For more than 30 years, Altice Portugal and MEO have proudly supported what is the premier event in regional motor racing - contested over three days in 16 stages that cover all the municipalities of Madeira Island - in a clear support for what is Portuguese and for the revitalization of Sport and Tourism, two areas that have been severely affected in recent years.
Motorsport is one of the disciplines supported by Altice Portugal alongside Surfing, Cycling, Tennis, Football and various sports institutions.
