The Benefits: What the Cowes International Cup will do for you!

   
 
Business Development 
  • Your crew will learn how to execute new
    communication and leadership skills, develop effective teamwork and decision-making abilities, transferable from the sea to the workplace!

  • Sailing is the best team exercise available – even being used by Williams F1 Racing.

  • Brendon Cleaver, Human Resources Manager, Foster Yeoman Ltd describes a corporate regatta as “A good value team building experience with the added advantage that we were getting the company some solid marketing exposure at the same time.”

  • Foster new relationships with fellow business leaders and develop new contacts amongst other crews in a relaxed, informal atmosphere at social events and keep in touch through the web site and regular new bulletins.

  • “Corporate hospitality is a vital part of the marketing mix,” Sir Digby Jones, CBI Director General. At sea you are completely away from the normal distractions of business life – the perfect environment for developing closer relationships with your clients.
Feedback
Keen yachtsman and London solicitor David Moore commented:
“As a keen sailor, I have often encouraged our firm to enter a corporate regatta. However, putting aside my natural enthusiasm for the sport, some appeared too strenuous – especially for less-experienced colleagues – leaving little time or energy for networking! Others were limited to one category of business.

In my opinion, the organisers of the COWES INTERNATIONAL CUP™ have developed the perfect format. It still represents a huge challenge to the crew – a great test of teamwork, leadership and communication skills – but the race schedule and combination of social events lend themselves to meeting new contacts from a wide range of companies. As we all know, doing business is about the people involved and their relationships. Getting to know the other crews, along with the opportunity to entertain clients aboard a luxury powerboat whilst watching the team race, will ensure that the event is a real winner for all concerned."
