Enterprise IT advisory-to-execution specialist, CloudStratex, has agreed to a one-year sponsorship deal with Championship rugby union side Richmond Rugby.

CloudStratex will sponsor the South-West London club, whose men’s first team plays in the RFU Championship (Level 2) for the 2022/23 season. The company typically helps large enterprise organisations improve their IT operational efficiency and resilience through better use of technology such as the cloud.

Richmond will use the sponsorship money to upgrade and modernise the Club’s current IT system. As part of the agreement, CloudStratex will have a pitch-side advertising board at every home game throughout the season and a full-page advert in every home digital match day programme, as well as one match ball sponsor position with the opportunity to host up to 10 guests on a Richmond match day.

Brad Day, co-founder and Director of CloudStratex, said: “I am delighted that we have been able to agree on this sponsorship deal with Richmond Rugby. Having been a member of the club for over 20 years, I know how much of a positive impact a sponsorship agreement like this will have on the management and development of the club, and we very much look forward to working with Richmond over the course of the new season.

Jimmy Wallace, Group Commercial Director for Richmond Rugby, added: “We are thrilled to have an innovative IT company like CloudStratex on board as a Club Partner and on behalf of the club, I would like to thank Brad and all his team for their support so far and we look forward to welcoming them all down here to the Athletic Ground this season.”

CloudStratex, headquartered in the City of London works with mainly large, blue-chip organisations, many of which are in financial services, and is undergoing rapid growth.

In July 2022, CloudStratex was awarded a prestigious position on The Sunday Times 100 fastest growing private companies list, where it was ranked the 27th fastest growing independent business and the fastest growing IT provider in the UK.
