It is such a great honor that our world-class rowers, Martin Mackovic and Nikolaj Pimenov, with their coach Nikola Stojic, have been invited to compete at the Henley Royal Regatta – a historic race that rightly holds its place as one of the most renowned rowing events in the world, running from 30 June until 5 July.

Rowing, as with engineering, requires a lot of planning, calculations and a mindset that lets you see your goal before you even start. Our tag team’s excellence is admirable and an inspiration that needs to be shared and seen.

Their results so far have been exceptional, and having the honor of competing with the biggest names in rowing today is beyond exciting. 

Vega IT and AikBank are also supporting Martin and Nikola’s effort to inspire Serbian youth through sport and education with the Novak Djokovic Foundation and we invite you to be in the same boat as us!

2112 meters of pure excellence and passion: Own a meter of the Henley course for $1

Did you know that most of the “standard” sprint regattas are around 2.000 meters, or 1.65 miles to be exact, and are usually finished in 6.5 to 7 minutes?

Well, Henley Royal Regatta takes a special place with its 2112 meters, with a famously tricky and narrow course that leaves little room for maneuver. Make one mistake, and a crash happens in a second, adding to the tension and dramatic feeling of the event.

To support the next generation of young Serbian rowers, you can give your contribution and buy your own meter of Henley course for 1$ on this LINK.

Our rowers are not just building their own careers, they are also paving the way for all the young future generations that will see their passion and love for sport, as well as the dedication and discipline it takes to be a true champion. 

And we want to be there during their journey. So we invite you to support it and of course, cheer on from June 30 to July 5 during the races.
