UXBRIDGE - In the lead up to the London 2012 Olympic and Paralympic Games, Xerox, the world leader in document management and business process outsourcing, as a sponsor is providing support to a number of UK sporting events.
The sponsorship agreement with sports marketing agency, Fast Track, has seen Xerox provide office printing equipment and solutions for the BT Paralympic World Cup, the largest annual, international multi-sport competition in disability sport hosted at the end of May 2010. Xerox has also committed to supply printing equipment for two other key sporting events in 2010 - UK Schools Games (an annual programme of school sport 2nd -16th September), and British Triathlon Championships (18th - 19th September).
Xerox is providing the events with a range of multi-function colour printing devices and desktop printers, combined with solutions to streamline the printing processes, as well fulfilling paper requirements. The BT Paralympic World Cup event benefitted from Xerox's innovative ColorQube 9200 series printer, which has won several industry awards for its advanced features offering environmentally-friendly and ease of use benefits.
Martyn Train, General Manager, Marketing, Xerox UK, commented: "We're delighted to be one of the official suppliers for these prestigious athletic events in the build-up to the London 2012 Olympics programme. The time and energy that goes into preparing for these events is incredible and it is Xerox's expertise and innovative technology that will support the vital behind-the-scenes services for some of the UK's greatest sporting events."
Jo Bryant, Event Manager, Fast Track added: "It's great to have the backing of Xerox for these events. Their expert back-office support enables us to focus on delivering the very best sporting events. We look forward to working with Xerox in the build up to London 2012."
