The AT&T Williams team today confirmed the launch of a new partnership with Ridge Solutions.

Ridge Solutions is one of Africa’s leading private sector companies, based in Angola, with interests in real estate, agriculture and natural resources.

Ridge Solutions’ logo will appear on the nose of the AT&T Williams race cars and on the sleeve of the drivers’ uniforms from this weekend’s Monaco Grand Prix.

José Ferreira Ramos, chairman of Ridge Solutions, said, “We are proud to join AT&T Williams and to be able to contribute to the team’s Formula One programme. We have two principal goals for the partnership. The first is to bring Williams and Formula One to Africa to help with various social programmes on the continent, from road safety to motor sports development. The second is to support the marketing of Ridge Solutions to international investors, in particular in the Middle East and Asia.”

Frank Williams, AT&T Williams’ Team Principal, said, “We are honoured to have Ridge Solutions join our team. José Ferreira Ramos has a compelling vision both for his company and for his country and we are proud to be able to assist with these objectives.”
