Adecco Signs on as Sponsor of 32nd America's Cup
Adecco SA, the worldwide leader in HR Solutions, is pleased to announce that it has become a 'Supporter' and Official HR Solutions Supplier of the 32nd America’s Cup. Building on its earlier role as HR Solutions Provider to the 31st America’s Cup in Auckland, New Zealand, in 2000, Adecco SA will now assist the 32nd America’s Cup with all aspects of Human Resources, through to the final Match in 2007.
