As the sails catch the wind towards the Paris 2024 Olympics, Bingham & Taylor is proud to announce its sponsorship of the U.S. Women’s Olympic Sailing Team.

Empowering Champions: The Journey to Paris 2024

In a resounding endorsement of talent and resilience, Bingham & Taylor, led by the visionary Laura Grondin, has proudly announced its sponsorship of the U.S. Women’s Olympic Sailing Team. As these elite athletes prepare for the highly anticipated Paris 2024 Olympics, they do so with the robust support and mentorship of a company that stands as a beacon of empowerment and excellence in both the manufacturing sector and competitive sports.

Laura Grondin, President and CEO of Bingham & Taylor, embodies leadership that harmonizes perfectly with the company’s ethos. This alignment is vividly illustrated in the sponsorship of Olympic hopefuls Stephanie Roble and Maggie Shea, a strategic move that champions not only sports but also female strength and leadership in competitive arenas.


"Securing our spot at the Olympics is an incredible milestone, and we couldn't have done it without Laura. With her assistance, Bingham & Taylor has provided vital resources, which have allowed us to focus all our energy on what matters most: our time on the water," said Shea, reflecting on the journey to the world’s foremost sailing competition.


With a lifelong passion for sailing and a commendable track record in business and manufacturing leadership, Laura Grondin is no stranger to overcoming challenges and setting high standards. Her roles extend beyond the corporate realm into significant positions within the sailing world, such as a board member of U.S. Sailing and chair of several influential sailing associations.


This sponsorship not only supports the athletes but also resonates with Bingham & Taylor’s commitment to its CARES values—creativity, collaboration, accountability, respect, excellence, and sustainability. These principles are the bedrock upon which the company has built its reputation as a leader in the manufacturing of underground utility access products, steadfast in supporting the infrastructure of communities and industries across North America and the Caribbean.


As the Paris 2024 Olympics approach, Bingham & Taylor continues to demonstrate that supporting excellence and resilience in sports can reflect the same values required in American manufacturing and leadership. This initiative is not just about sailing; it’s about setting a course for future generations of women to excel in all high-performance environments, supported by those who understand the significance of mentorship and empowerment.
