QSi Seals Record Fifth Gulf Cup Platinum Deal with Doha Bank

Multi-sport games - 24 Nov 2004
   
QSi today surprised everybody tracking the progress of the 17th Arabian Gulf Cup, with a record breaking signing of a 5th Platinum Partner, Doha Bank. This was an unexpected announcement, as QSi had previously 'sold out' its Platinum sponsorship packages. The bank joins Etihad Airlines, Q-Tel, Toyota and QIC at the tournaments’ most prestigious level of sponsorship.

Sheikh Fahed Bin Mohammed Bin Jabor Al Thani, Chairman of Doha Bank leading one of the country’s most ambitious and energetic financial institutions, said he was 'highly honoured to participate and pleased to assist in making this important event successful for the state of Qatar.'

Perry Smith, Board Member of QSi, explained the surprise move; 'Doha Bank made an overwhelming case to be included exceptionally as a 5th Platinum Partner to next month’s event, given the award of the 'Bank of the Year 2004' title last month & their strong desire to maximize this accolade, utilizing the power of sports sponsorship and the 17th Gulf Cup in particular. We simply could not refuse their strong financial offering to support the 17th Gulf Cup and we are pleased to announce them as a record 5th Platinum Partner'.

Innovatively re-packaged by hosts Qatar, this year’s Gulf Cup is set to be a truly unique event. Already a major Gulf sporting competition involving the national football teams, Qatar has added the football teams of Iraq & Yemen to those of the six GCC States, in a new-look event with basketball, handball and volleyball also being played for the first time in the tournament being held in Doha 10-24 December.

QSi is the Qatar National Olympic Committee’s own sports business directorate established by the President QNOC in 2003.

QSi was granted the exclusive marketing rights to the 17th Gulf Cup in April this year. Under this agreement QSi has developed a comprehensive package of benefits to attract international event partners.

Its role is to develop professionalism and cost effectiveness in the sporting development of Qatar. In its brief history it has achieved corporate international and technical sponsorships for the QNOC, managed major international sports business expose and conferences, sports and leisure events, whilst acting as the catalyst for development of major new global sports business initiatives, to the benefit of the country.
