SPONSORSPARTNERS
Investment firm Fidelity Investment Managers will continue sponsoring the Blenheim Palace International Horse Trials next year, following the company’s successful inaugural sponsorship in September 2010.
“This was our first foray into sports sponsorship and we were overwhelmed by demand from our clients to attend the event – some of whom were newcomers to eventing. The feedback we have had on Blenheim 2010 from clients, competitors and the eventing fraternity in general has been fantastic. Our reasons for sponsoring Blenheim stemmed from our belief that Fidelity has much in common with eventing supporters. This has definitely been proved to be true and we continue to believe it is a good match for us. We can see the sport is going from strength to strength in the run-up to 2012 and we’re delighted to be associated with it,” explains Rob Fisher, Head of UK Personal Investments at Fidelity.
“This news is just what we are hoping for,” says Horse Trials Director, Mandy Hervieu “Everybody involved with Blenheim worked incredibly hard to put on the very best event we could and Fidelity’s investment has helped us to improve the facilities at the event across the board.”
The Fidelity Blenheim Palace International Horse Trials 2011 will run from 8-11 September 2011.
