Selenium Medical has sponsored TEAM TARANGAU.

Team spirit, entrepreneurship, commitment, innovation and surpassing oneself are all values relayed by sailing.

Because they embody the company’s values, in 2015 Selenium Medical joined in with the adventure of TEAM TARANGAU composed of 16-year-old Louis CHAMBET, and Timothée DEPERY, 15.

  • They plan to participate in national, European and world events located in Europe, in the 29er series. At their reference championship, the Europacup, they are currently ranked 19th / 118 participants and 8th French.

Their evolution:

  • 10-14 February: Eurocup, San Andreu / Spain, they finish 40th / 61 ranked and 9th French
  • 3-6 April: Eurocup, Cavalaire / France, they finish 25th / 93 ranked and 7th French
  • 12 April: Rhone Alpes League Challenge, Annecy, they finish 1st / 12 ranked

The coach of TEAM TARANGAU said: "TEAM TARANGAU is a 1901 law association that aims to sail crews in the area of sailing regatta, providing organisational, material, logistical and human resources to competitors and crews competitors supported by the association.

"It was created in early 2015 during the surge of Louis and Timothée project. If this experience is successful, we will expand the association activities with other potential young crews, from different regions."

With a young and dynamic structure, Selenium Medical has wished to support this first duo.

This partnership plays an important role in strengthening our vision work as a team for our customers, our colleagues and our environment.

  • Participate in at least five halves of the Eurocup to be ranked. Finish this championship in the top five French, and if possible around the 15th place of the general ranking
  • Participate in the World series and finish in the top five
