Life, Helping Hands, IGT, Leighton, MBSK Events, MGM Macau, Galaxy Entertainment, Sands China, SJM Grand Lisboa, Shuffl emaster, Silver Heritage, SK Support, Walker Digital Gaming and Wynn Macau are among the socially responsible corporate patrons who will wield their clubs for charity at the event.
Double challenge With the expansion of the event to a two-day contest, the organisers have devised a number of golfi ng and non- golfi ng challenges to entertain com- petitors. The fi rst round will have a more entertainment-oriented ambience, building up the players’ competitive spirit for the second round. The tournament will have a three-
some-Texas-scramble format, allowing both experienced and novice players to compete on an equal footing. The total prize money for the
tournament is HK$200,000, to be split equally between the two teams who fi n- ish the two rounds with the best gross and net scores. Patrons will compete for the right to nominate the charity they would like to forward their winnings to.
Moderate optimism The organisers, MBSK Events, are opti- mistic about the event’s development. Co-managing director of MBSK
Events Stefan Kuehn said: “Bringing to- gether the entire local gaming industry, as well as businesses across the board from Hong Kong, Macau, South China, and even Australasia, meant the event had to be spread over two days. By do- ing this, we’re now the biggest event of its kind in the region. “As with any new enterprise, it
has not been an easy task to establish something you’ve been envisioning for a long time. But the team behind us did an incredible job, helping us to raise the bar high, again.” Co-managing director Paulo A.
Azevedo said that while some com- panies had embraced their corporate
social responsibilities, there were many other enterprises that could do more. “Companies who feel that their sole operational role is to reap the most benefi ts have no place in the local busi- ness community,” said Mr Azevedo, the founder and publisher of Macau Business.
Greatest reward “The greatest reward from the growth of a company comes from the public’s recognition of its positive role in im- proving the society in which it oper- ates”, he said. The organisers are confi dent this
year’s event will again break records in terms of both participation and funds
raised. To help raise the bar, a special line-up of items from the worlds of entertainment, sports and the fi ne arts have been picked for the traditional live auction of memorabilia. MBSK Events is certain that the
fourth annual Macau Business Charity Golf Tournament and Gala Dinner will be an event to remember, and one that will be spoken about for a long time to come.
