Basel, Switzerland (GenevaLunch) – The Miami offshoot of the Basel Art fair has since 2002 been a place where wealthy clients and would-be customers of Swiss bank UBS could expect to be lavishly wined and dined in carpeted tents. The bank is the main sponsor of the US version of the contemporary art show in Switzerland, of which it is the sole sponsor. This year UBS has canceled what Bloomberg regards as its signature extravaganza event.
Lords, a name that in the world of cricket means something akin to the holy ground, as the sport’s “most famous ground” according to the Times, UK, is considering selling its name. It becomes the latest major traditional sport venue in Britain to consider selling naming rights to a major sponsor. Wembley Stadium and Twickenham considering doing the same, in rugby. Lords cricket grounds are part of a major redevelopment project in London, England.
