Team Wales Business Club is a unique opportunity to celebrate the talent and pride of the athletes in the Commonwealth Games.
The key purpose of launching the Business Club is to highlight the depth and breadth of sporting talent across Wales, emphasising the power of the Team Wales brand, the importance of driving the business network across current stakeholders and future partners, whilst putting Welsh businesses on the national and international stage.
Team Wales CEO, Rebecca Edwards-Symmons said ‘Getting the opportunity to launch the Business Club within my first twelve months has been superb. Having a focus on different topics in each one, really gives us the opportunity to bring in unique guest speakers and panellists. It also gives us the key opportunity to bring businesses across Wales together to learn about the Games, Team Wales and a further opportunity to network and create new relationships and partnerships’.
