Puig Women's America's Cup is Born

Puig Women’s America’s Cup

The Puig Women’s America’s Cup, taking place in Barcelona from October 5th to 13th, will be one of the highlights of the 37th America’s Cup. Joining the six established official participants representing New Zealand, Great Britain, Italy, Switzerland, the United States and France are six new teams from Spain, the Netherlands, Canada, Germany, Sweden, and Australia. The addition of new teams and countries further enhances the anticipation of an extraordinary sailing experience.

Puig is collaborating in the 37th edition of the America’s Cup as a global sponsor and as a Naming Partner of the first women’s race in the history of the America’s Cup. This commitment reflects its local identity as a global company based in the city of Barcelona and its rich nautical heritage. With a long tradition of sponsorship within the world of sailing, Puig is proud to support this historic competition, while promoting and reinforcing the presence and excellence of women in the sport.

The Trophy

The Spanish architect and designer Patricia Urquiola was commissioned to design and shape the trophy that the winning women’s team of the Puig Women’s America’s Cup will receive on 13 October. For this, Urquiola used “a simple, geometric figure, like a cylinder, without decorative elements or a base, which at one point opens up like a large sail struck by the wind”. Made of silver, with a height of 58 cm and weighing about 5 kg, its interior hides a rose gold effect. The finishing has been done by means of an exhaustive chiseling in the widest part of the cylinder. Unlike the original America’s Cup trophy — designed by Robert Garrard in 1848 — the Puig Women’s America’s Cup lacks handles so that “the winning team can embrace it in its full form,” according to the designer.
