OOFOS SS24
International Sales Meeting - London
We are proud to have held our International conferences at two iconic sporting homes to date - Twickenham Rugby Stadium and now London Rowing Club. These venues have played an important role in the history of sport, representing the very best in performance and excellence.
This year we will be changing the location of our London meeting to The London Rowing Club – a venue steeped in tradition with a proud heritage as home to London Rowing, and the start line of the annual Oxford vs Cambridge Boat Race. Its location on the banks of the River Thames provides a unique setting for our conference in 2023, and its commitment to health and wellness aligns perfectly with our own mission. We are honoured to be able to hold our conferences at this inspiring location and look forward to welcoming you in May.
