The Madintec team is proud to announce that MADBrain Autopilot has been nominated for the prestigious Dame Design Awards 2024! MADBrain will be in the spotlight at METSTRADE in Amsterdam from November 19 to 21, alongside the best innovations in the marine industry.

2023 was a year rich in races and successes for the teams we support. 2024 promises to be fabulous. The new year gets off to a strong start with the Arkea Ultim Challenge, and will be rounded off by numerous transatlantic races, culminating in the Vendée Globe. And let's not forget the America's Cup, where several Madintec employees will be taking part.

Treat yourself to the best autopilot on the market. We wanted to make our MADBrain Autopilot solution accessible to as many people as possible, with an adapted price and a new, even simpler and more intuitive user interface.

With about fifty boats at the start and 2/3 of the podiums, it is a great success that motivates our team to continue to offer you the best. Congratulations to all!
