This partnership has long since outgrown the framework of classic sponsorship. It is a collaboration based on continuity, trust and a shared understanding of the importance of an event that has become an indispensable part of the identity of Rijeka and Kvarner. The sea and Kvarner have been an important part of INA's story since its founding, and through the operations and projects we develop in the areas of Rijeka, Kostrena, Bakar and Kraljevica, our company actively participates in the life of this region.
As one of the key economic factors of this area, INA continues to invest in projects of strategic importance for energy security and development of the entire country. At the center of these activities is the largest investment cycle in the company's history - the modernization of the Rijeka Oil Refinery, a project that further improves the safety, efficiency and sustainability of operations and creates prerequisites for future development and new technologies.
INA remains a symbol of the economic strength and importance of Kvarner, just as the Fiumanka regatta remains a symbol of Kvarner tourism. Long-standing connection and partnership Ine and Fiumanka – a sea and a community that transcends generations, becoming a symbol of the connection between people and the space in which we operate together. We also share values ​​– team spirit, love for Kvarner, mutual trust and respect, and this is the guarantee that we will continue sailing together.
