New initiative: Local businesses invited to SoL

Sunderland AFC is launching an exciting new initiative for locally-based businesses.

Local businesses are invited to come along to Sunderland AFC‘s Carabao Cup match against Sheffield Wednesday to learn more. The club is aiming to re-connect with the local business community, alongside supporting businesses to meet their own objectives.

A special event to share information about the business club will take place on the evening of Thursday 16 August, at the Stadium of Light. There will be an informal presentation about the new initiative and the opportunity to meet key decision makers at the club, along with a bite to eat before the big match.

The evening will begin with executive director Charlie Methven sharing the club's vision for the future and how the new owners are taking the club forward.

Managing director Tony Davison will then discuss the concept of the business club, how it will work, what the benefits are to the business community and what is involved.

There will be an opportunity for attendees to ask questions and share their views, as well as the chance to meet fellow members of the local business community.

Businesses will have the opportunity to sign up to the business club on the night.

HOW TO GET INVOLVED
The launch of the event takes place on Thursday 16 August, in the Montgomery Suite at the Stadium of Light, arrival at 5.45pm with the event starting at 6pm.
