The new-for-2023 collaboration has allowed Porsche to become the dominant force in the all-electric category, as it leads both the Drivers’ and Teams’ championships ahead of the next round in Monaco this weekend.
Integral to the brand’s ongoing success has been its technological collaboration with Cato Networks, a world-leader in cloud networking and security infrastructure.
The company was founded in 2015 by Gur Shatz and Shlomo Kramer, and has grown substantially during that period, increasing its revenue from $1 million to $100 million in the last five years alone.
It means the company is the “fastest growing network cyber security start-up on the planet” according to Andreas Bandel, Area Director DACH and EE.
“When Cato Networks chose the partnership with the TAG Heuer Porsche Formula E Team it was not only just a sponsorship partnership, what we are doing is also a technology partnership,” he said.
Cato Networks’ vision on sustainability meant it was a perfect fit for Formula E. With Cato, the network is so reliable and effective that organisations can reduce a remote location’s carbon footprint by running applications in the cloud.
“The ABB FIA Formula E World Championship is about sustainability, and this was another part of the decision to sponsor TAG Heuer Porsche,” added Bandel.
