Boulder, CO September 4, 2007- Winning Time recently formed a partnership with top South American timer, Sports Solutions, to grow the Winning Time brand across Latin America. Sports Solutions, based in Caracas, Venezuela, has been the official timer for the company for the last three years. While they will continue to maintain and grow their timing services, they will also serve as the Winning Time representatives in Latin America.

“Sports Solutions has strong contacts in the industry throughout Latin America and they speak both Spanish and Portuguese” said Julia Vitarello, General Manager of Winning Time Americas. “With the growing number of requests from Central and South America, our company needed someone on the ground in that territory to fully support our current timers as well as identify and bring in the best future partners.” 

Pablo Bonilla, founder and president of Sports Solutions, is working on giving full support to the current network which spans from Ecuador to Paraguay to Brazil. He and his team will provide training, rental equipment and chips, repairs, and anything else which will help boost the business of the timers. Winning Time and Sports Solutions are already on their way to growing a strong network of timing partners in a region whose events are growing exponentially in number and size.
