Increasing its market share, especially in highly competitive environments such as South Korea, has always been a priority for FPT Industrial. One of the keys to that success has been its ability to stay ahead of the curve, by providing the most technologically-advanced solutions for the market.

The O' Porto Rotondo Offshore Classic Edition "Powered by FPT" was held in the waters of Porto Rotondo in Sardinia, from August 20 - 22. This prestigious, deep-sea fishing competition for imperial needlefish, was promoted by FPT Industrial.

The engine has been conceived and perceived not only as a generator of power but also as a brand ambassador, designed as a "means of communication" of the founding values and passions of the brand itself.

The partnership between FPT Industrial and the Fishing Division of the Porto Rotondo Yacht Club, in Sardinia, was officially inaugurated on July 9, 2020. The event was commemorated with the installation of a permanent plaque next to the main entrance of the clubhouse.
