“I took part in the iSportconnect Regatta last year and not only did I thoroughly enjoy it, it proved a highly useful business event.
“New client business was generated as a direct result of the day and I made two new industry contacts, both of whom have been invaluable contributors to subsequent activities my organisation has undertaken for clients.”
David Gibbs – Digital Director, Sky Sports & Sky News
“It was a fantastic day with fantastic weather and fantastic company. There was brilliant team building with a bunch of people I didn’t know very well that I now know a lot better. It was great fun, pretty hard work, but a brilliant day!”
Richard Clarke – Consulting Content Director, Indonesia Liga1
“I had a great day here at the iSportconnect Regatta. It was a good chance to break out from the office and connect with a few people I had never met before.
“You end up running a ship, racing, being competitive and having a few drinks after. It was a nice way to relax and a good way to bond and create teamwork.”
