Curaçao minister of economic development, Giselle Mc William, explained: “Tourism is an important pillar of Curaçao’s economic development, and this cooperation with Ajax is a great way to tell our Dutch and international target groups more about Curaçao as a diverse holiday destination.
“We have many years of experience doing sports marketing worldwide and a partnership with Ajax, with its international reach and focus on future generations fits well with our objectives.
“We look forward to an excellent collaboration and are excited to receive the team in Curaçao, so that they can see for themselves how many new experiences await them on our island.”
In addition to the visibility generated by means of a logo on the shirt, the agreement also includes a visit by Ajax to Curaçao.
