Today, Maritimo presented the strategic plan for the near future of the logo, which will compete in the second football league, in a clarification session for members that ended with great opposition to the current administration.
The session promoted by the administration was originally scheduled for the conference hall in the sports complex of Al-Jazira Club, but due to the high turnout, about 320 members, it had to be changed to the wing located in the same building.
Admission was restricted to members of the Navy, for a clarification session on the strategic plan for the immediate future of the Madeira Emblem, which will be voted on at the Extraordinary General Assembly, scheduled for June 27.
At the ensuing press conference, the Chairman of the Board of Directors of the General Assembly of Maritimo, José Augusto Araujo, said that “the will is that the partners who will participate in the AG will have a better knowledge of the technical issues that are at stake for this plan”, assuming that the objective is clearly not achieved.”
Similar to what happened in the session behind closed doors, the plan was explained to reporters by Hugo Caetano, an advisor to a company that Maritimo had hired to prepare it.
“The intention was to present to the partners what the needs are from the point of view of reorganizing the commercial structure of the maritime universe, so that Maritimo can prepare effectively for the challenge it faces today,” said Hugo Caetano, explaining that the club needs to attract investors, “whether existing or new” , but for that it is necessary to “professionalize his business structure, which is SAD”.
The adviser stressed that “there is deep work to be done and the challenge is great,” adding that the goal was to present the plan, so that “it will be easier for the partners to vote on the 27th.” .
“Marítimo has a determined attitude to effort, a positioning itself just like other clubs in the second division that are trying to fight for the first division, they have a journey to make and if they don’t they will certainly have a much harder task to achieve,” he said. these goals.”
According to Hugo Caetano, investors who have shown interest “need to see and appreciate this strategic plan, both in this direction and in that direction, because really the essential part is the need to professionalize SAD, which is within the club, and not to professionalize it, does not fully achieve its objective” .
The consultant pointed out that with regard to the commercial structure of the maritime universe, “there is a group of companies that, from the point of view of the corporate structure, are not within the maritime domain,” a situation that makes it “impossible to attract investors, without being resolved.”
“The sports season is being prepared and, with the agreement of this strategic plan, there is at least one investor who can enter immediately and there is another who can immediately start doing the work, because he intends to list SAD do Marítimo on the interest” of two groups based in Portugal but with foreign investors and an investor, he explained. American”.
Hugo Caetano was keen to point out that the vote that will take place at the Extraordinary General Assembly, on June 27, at 6:00 pm, has nothing to do with investors, indicating that “they will be presented in private meetings and there can be no these proposals without This structure to be organized.
