The next venture...
Melvin Byres
Ethically recruiting Filipino carers and nurses for UK care homes, domicillary care, councils and private households
After four fantastic years working with the excellent team at the Hong Kong Rugby Union today is my last day; the time is right to take a bit of a leap and venture out on my own as a sports/events consultant.
It's been a privilege working with and meeting so many wonderful people over the years; the superstars you see on TV, the loyal supporters, sponsors and suppliers and of course the unsung heroes at the HKRU, AR, World Rugby and rugby clubs/unions around the world that work tirelessly in the background year round, to keep rugby moving forward in Hong Kong and around the globe.
My first big project is working with Mayo & Calder bringing the Volvo Ocean Race, the round the world yacht race, to Hong Kong in early 2018.
The other big project is the Business of Sport Network (BOSN) which I launched last night. BOSN is a sponsor funded, free to join networking club providing events and seminars for those working on the commercial side of sport. Right now its just in Hong Kong but its coming to a city near you very soon.

If you don't know what you don't know about live event ticketing I might be the right person to ask, and if I don't know the answer I'll introduce you to someone that does.
