  From:1994

  
  

  The reason which prompted program development

  A former basketball player, a passionate Harley-Davidson biker and a cricket fan, Mr. Marin acknowledges the responsibilities that successful businesses owe to the community in which they work and live. Thus, Omnilogic has actively involved itself in the day-by-day life of its community, investing efforts and money primarily not only in cultural areas but also in sports.

  
  

  Project goal and objectives

  Such high profile business and political conferences or events are not Omnilogic’s only contribution to our fast-developing community, the company being actively involved in the day-by-day life of its community. We are proud of our involvement in supporting Romanian sports, Omnilogic being the official partner of the Romanian Basketball Federation and the main sponsor of the Romanian national basketball women’s team for the last 9 years.

  During this period of time, the team succeeded in obtaining two historic qualifications in a row for the European Championship Final (under - 16) Tournament, in 2005 (Turkey) and 2007 (Italy). We are looking forward for the girls to show that they were fully able to continue with the same outstanding results, and to qualify again in this final, elite competition.

  Active involvement in developing the cricket in Romania

  
  

  Partner: The Foundation Consiliul Roman de Cricket (Cricket Romania)

  Beneficiary: Romanians, boys and girls as players, enthusiasts or supporters of cricket

  Location: Romania

  From: June 2009

  
  

  The reason which prompted program development

  Spurred by his achievements in promoting basketball and setting up a highly successful IT company, Gabriel Marin was greatly enthused by the game of cricket when he was introduced to it by his son who was studying in England some years ago.

  Gabriel Marin’s motto if he were to coin one, is “there is no room for second place” and he builds businesses and enterprises based on a platform of performance, honesty and non compromise – all attributes he says that can be found in abundance in the game of cricket.

  Given the smattering of clubs and cricket enthusiasts developing around Romania, it was felt that an over all body that would manage and develop the game of cricket was needed and to take cricket in Romania into the international arena in the decade ahead.

  In a collective agreement with the cricket enthusiast in Romania, it was agreed to set up Consiliul Roman de Cricket – or ‘Cricket Romania’ in June 2009 under Marin’s stewardship. The foundation has a charitable purpose which clearly differentiate it from the company's commercial operations.

  
  

  Project goal and objectives

  The mission of the foundation is to promote the game of cricket throughout Romania through the value systems of sportsmanship, 'teamsmanship', leadership, commitment and above all fair-play, and to bring about a sense of achievement and enjoyment to its participants – boys & girls, men & women – as players, avid enthusiasts or just as interested supporters.

  The mail goal is to develop, stimulate, organize and manage this sport nationwide. Moreover, through its active involvement, Omnilogic wants to ensure a sustainable development of cricket with and for Romanians.

  
  

  What is the activity of Consiliul Roman de Cricket?

  Steeped in tradition and with a strong emphasis on fair play, correctness and sportsmanship, cricket is a game which is fun and for everyone. It is firmly guided by the Spirit of the Game, a code of behaviour that sits alongside the game’s Laws. With such positive attributes attached to the game, Cricket Romania is introducing Kwik Cricket, a simple and highly enjoyable form of the game, into 100 schools over the next 3 years to produce the future Romanian players or the game. In time, there will be competitions including zonal, regional and national championships.

• The endowment of the Surgical Department of the Central University Emergency Military Hospital

  
  

  Partner: The Central University Emergency Military Hospital

  Beneficiary: doctors and patients of The Central University Emergency Military Hospital

  Location: Bucharest

  Period: 2010

  
  

  The reason which prompted program development

  One of the most important program in health area in 2010 is the generous cash donation to the Surgical Department of the Central University Emergency Military Hospital to purchase the instruments for laparoscopic surgery.

  
  

  In world practice, laparoscopic surgery had rapidly become popular and has seen widespread development in the last decade. This modern method of minimally invasive surgical treatment, potentially addresses to all patients (regardless of age and sex) requiring a surgery that can be performed using this technique. The benefits offered by minimally invasive surgical treatments compared with those of classical treatments was the reason which prompted program development.

  
  

  Project goal and objectives

  The new toolkit will provide major benefits to both physicians and patients of the Surgical Department of the Central University Emergency Military Hospital regarding the surgery performance act, and the quality of life through the fast rehabilitation and social reintegration after the surgery. Laparoscopic surgeries are contraindicated only to patients in critical condition, but also in the absence of a minimum of instruments or of insufficient surgical experience.

  Minimally invasive surgical treatments have the same efficiency as conventional cuts, but more benefits for the patient and doctor, and ultimately for hospital economy.

  
  

  " The Toolkit will provide major benefits to both physicians and patients regarding the surgery performance act, and the quality of life through the fast rehabilitation and social reintegration after the surgery" said chief of Surgery I, Col. Dr. Artenie Teodor.

  
  

  " I think is a natural gesture to be receptive to everything that Health means and to the problems that medical world is facing today. Beyond the serious deficiencies faced by the Romanian Health System, investments in health-care are a civilized and widespread form of social responsibility. We have been impressed by the power and great desire of the doctors from "Dr. Carol Davila" Central Military Hospital to improve the quality and safety of the medical act." said Mr. Gabriel Marin, Managing Director Omnilogic.

  Beneficiari: comunitatea de afaceri si politica din Romania

  Context desfaşurare program

  Omnilogic a sprijinit organizarea primei conferinte Beyond Borders in Romania, organizate la Palatul Parlamentului impreuna cu Brand Academy Expunerea a avut ca tema „Branding a Country. Building Reputation From Within” (“Branding de tara. Cum se construieste reputatia unei tari chiar din interiorul acesteia”). Astfel, Omnilogic a fost onorata si mandra sa-l invite si sa-l gazduiasca pe dl. William Jefferson Clinton, fostul Presedinte al Statelor Unite ale Americii, pentru un eveniment de o zi in luna mai a anului 2005.

  
  

  Scopul proiectului

  Prin aceasta implicare, Omnilogic a dorit sa ofere comunitatii de afaceri si politice din Romania sansa de a impartasi idei despre oportunitatile de dezvoltare din Romania cu unul dintre cei mai proeminenti oratori si ganditori strategici din lume, onorabilul William Jefferson Clinton. Cu acest prilej, fostul lider american a explicat audientei cum trebuie sa fie un brand puternic: adevarat, bun si orientat catre viitor. in plus, Clinton a subliniat faptul ca, orice fel de slogan sau simbol legat de un brand reprezentativ pentru Romania trebuie mai intai testat in Romania.

  
  

  In opinia dlui Gabriel Marin “este o mare onoare pentru Omnilogic sa fie partener unic intr-un eveniment de o asemenea importanta pentru Romania si mediul de afaceri romanesc. Asa cum a reiesit din dialogul pe care l-am avut cu fostul Presedinte American, dl.Bill Clinton, este important ca dezvoltarea economica sa devina prioritate atunci cand ai foarte putine lucruri ce pot deveni brand. Un climat liber si creativ de afaceri reprezinta una dintre cele mai vandabile valori la ora de fata pentru Romania".
