Specialist professional service company Match has been appointed by FIFA to provide travel and accommodation solutions alongside ticketing, hospitality and tourist packages for football's major tournaments including the 2014 World Cup. It has previously provided these services for the 2009 Confederations Cup and 2010 World Cup in South Africa and has also been engaged for Brazil's 2013 Confederations Cup.
"Their logistical expertise coupled with their knowledge of the football industry makes Match the perfect partners to help our delegates travel to Brazil and source accommodation for their stay during the Soccerex Global Convention," said Soccerex CEO Duncan Revie. "The fact they are appointed by FIFA testifies to the quality of their organisation and affirms the level of service delegates can expect to receive."
More than 4,000 delegates will attend the Global Convention this year, including representatives from clubs, brands, sponsors, host cities, leagues, federations, government bodies, leading infrastructure suppliers, agencies and international media.
The five-day event, to run from November 26-30, will include a comprehensive conference line-up, exhibition, numerous networking opportunities and a two-day Football Festival, all taking place between Forte de Copacabana and Copacabana beach.
