Ernst & Young: supporting cultural and sporting life in Britain Over the past 17 years we have sponsored some of the most successful art exhibitions ever held in the UK and this has given us an opportunity to contribute to the cultural life of the country. We're extending that commitment to include sporting excellence, through our sponsorship of the Glasgow 2014 Commonwealth Games - one of world’s most exciting sports events. Current sponsorships
Past sponsorships. Some of the highly successful exhibitions we've sponsored include: - Global Investment Conference 2013: We were the main sponsor, alongside HSBC, of the Global Investment Conference 2013, which brought together financial leaders, chief executives and corporate investors from around the world to discuss how to boost business investment and global economic growth.

We continued our long-term involvement with the Tate with sponsorship of the temporary Visitor Centre at Bankside Power Station before the opening of the new Tate Gallery of Modern Art in May 2000. In addition, our support helped to make possible the opening of Lambeth Palace to the public for the first time, together with an arts-based project bringing together local school children, the Tate's education department and Lambeth Palace. We won the prestigious Association for Business Sponsorship of the Arts (ABSA) award for the Best First Sponsorship and Best Single Proj ect for Picasso and Cezanne respectively. Business sponsorship of the arts allows works to be shown to a wider audience than would otherwise have the chance to see them. Many of the paintings in the exhibitions we have sponsored have never been shown together. Over the years, our clients and staff, along with the general public, have gained a lot of enjoyment from exhibitions we have supported.  |
