Intelligent Sport World Series Final features 12 annual corporate challenge events on six continents
A team from consultant Capita Symonds has won a place in the Intelligent Sport World Series Final, one of the most gruelling corporate challenge events.
The competition comprises 12 annual corporate challenge events on six continents, culminating in December鈥檚 World Series Final where the top teams from each event go head-to-head in the ultimate showcase of team performance.
This year鈥檚 event is being held the Geopark Naturtejo da Meseta Meridional in Central Portugal, close to the Spanish border, and will see 30 elite teams from companies across the US, South Africa, Europe and the Far East taking part, including the US Air Force.
The event takes place over four stages - spread over two days and nights - and is fast and furious from the outset.
Tom Davies, Capita鈥檚 team leader, said: 鈥淭he exact details are kept a secret until the teams arrive, but the event is expected to include running, mountain biking, navigating and strategising over the four stages.
鈥淚n addition, it is likely that one of the stages will be a build stage, in which the teams will have to use items of equipment issued to them to build a machine or structure to perform a task.
鈥淧revious tasks have included constructing and racing roman chariots, building and using rafts, and building a crane to retrieve eggs from an obstacle course!鈥
