B2B DEMOGRAPHICS

One important way for a company to grow their business is through hospitality at BRDC Formula 4 events in main hos-

pitality and team areas, because motorsport as embedded related links with automotive, motorsport, aeronautical,

marine and military industries.

This gives the sponsor partners access to the pits and hos-pitality area is an excellent way to build lasting relation-

ships. The race track is a great way to meet other company executives in a relaxed, shirtsleeves environment. Through

these contacts, business relationships develop that can

mean significant numbers to a company’s bottom line. Many of these executives prefer to deal with other Execu-

tives who support the sport they love.
