Doha – 15^th February 2022

 

In a move that has become in familiar association with the H.H. The Amir Sword Festival, the partnership between the Qatar Racing and Equestrian Club (QREC) and QNB Group, the largest financial institution in the Middle East and Africa, has been renewed. In addition to their role as the title sponsor of the H.H. The Amir Sword Festival for the third consecutive year, QNB will also sponsor the H.H. The Amir Silver Sword race, which will be part of the most coveted horseracing festival in Qatar and the region. Purebred Arabian stars will take on each other with the Silver Sword as their target.

 

Al Mohannadi: Prestigious standing of coveted Festival

Speaking about this renewed fruitful partnership, His Excellency Issa bin Mohammed Al Mohannaid said: "The existing cooperation between QREC and QNB Group is a true embodiment of the partnership, which contributes to the success of this type of major events held in Qatar. We have been cooperating with QNB for years and our relations have been extended beyond sponsoring the Festival. We are, therefore, pleased to continue this collaboration and benefit from the mutual commitment of the two organisations to maximise the success and standing of the His Highness The Amir Festival worldwide, especially with international runners and connections heading to Doha targeting the titles of the iconic event. In addition, this year’s edition comes in different circumstances from those which the world experienced last year. Our experiences demonstrate that we have overcome all previous challenges and adverse effects.”

 

“I would like to thank QNB Group for their continued support of QREC and the Festival, and their keenness to be the Title Sponsor for the third year in a row and also to sponsor the His Highness The Amir Silver Sword. Their attitude is highly regarded and it reflects the pioneering role of QNB Group in supporting our long-established sport”, added Al Mohannadi.

 

Al Nuaimi: Long-standing partnership with QREC

Commenting on the ever growing partnership, Mr Salem Al Naimi, Assistant General Manager, QNB Public Relations, said: “QNB Group has established a special long-standing partnership with QREC. Over the years, we have supported QREC’s events, topped by the His Highness The Amir Sword Festival, which QNB is keen to sponsor as a title sponsor every year.”

 

“At QNB, we regularly provide our sponsorship and support to various sports events, especially the ones which have a cultural nature and celebrate our authentic Qatari heritage and traditions. As we all know, 2022 is a special year from the sporting point of view, particularly as we are about to host a global sports event, which will focus the world's attention on our sports achievements and culture in all sports disciplines. I wish success to all who will take part in the His Highness The Amir Sword Festival, which we all we are honoured to be part of”, added Al Nuaimi.
