Olympics is Just Around the Corner

The Olympics are 17 days away and for this iSportconnect has created a Networking Tool and are launching a Olympic Special E-magazine as well as partnered with Havas S&E House.

 

London 2012 Networking Tool

Last month we launched the London 2012 Networking Tool, allowing iSportconnect members to see who else will be attending the event and schedule meetings with other members.

With everyone from journalists to marketing executives and presidents of international associations attending this historical event, iSportconnect is the one place for everyone to get together.

iSportconnect members who have already signed up include Sir Craig Reedie, Executive Board Member of the IOC; Ed Warner, Chairman of UK Athletics and Chris Daniels, Head of London 2012 B2B Activation at Lloyds Banking Group.
