Benefits of Partnering with The Global Ball

“One Ball, Around The Globe, on One Day, for One Cause”

Extraordinary Balls are now offering partnership opportunities to companies and organizations who recognize the value of global social enterprise to parties on both sides of this exchange. We are able to connect companies with an international network of entrepreneurs.

The inaugural Global Ball is one global event taking place over a period of 24 hours.

The One Ball is being held from East to West during the evening of 8th of Nov 2008 starting from Singapore, travelling to Cape Town to climax at London’s most prestigious venue; the luxurious Grosvenor House hotel on Park Lane.

This is a pioneering event, setting the standard for the future. The various sites and cities of the ball will be linked using the very latest communication technology, enabling guests to connect with potential business partners in Australia or Dubai then enjoy the evening in lavish style.

What is in it for you as a partner?

The balls are being organised by members of a global network of entrepreneurs XL Results Foundation although they are open to anyone.

Members of this network, currently at around 6000 and growing, communicate freely around the world, establishing businesses and travelling throughout the globe and within their own cities and countries.

XL Results Foundation operate the only global accreditation scheme for businesses giving effectively to charities and causes around the world, which is called the Social Enterprise Accreditation programme (SEA).

Tickets for the ball are being sold through the website, which, at the most conservative estimate, will be viewed by at least thousands and thosuands of entrepreneurs (tickets for the ball in India are not being sold through the website due to the culture and infrastructure).

Those ready to act now can take advantage of this unique opportunity to be at the entry level of what is to become one of the most exciting and innovative movements of the 21st Century.

Extraordinary Balls is at the forefront at ‘effective giving’ and we invite you to partner with us to do great business globally, and ride the wave of effective giving at the same time.

Singapore is under tremendous pressure!

The initial date of 08-08-08 meant that it was impossible to find a venue of any kind in Singapore, with a small thing; the most auspicious date in the entire calendar for about 100 years getting in the way slightly, coupled with a global athletics event known as The Olympics.
Understanding the concept of “flow” we got out of the way of this and turned into the direction of energy.

Now we have a new date of 08-11-08, this is going to be far more auspicious for us as we will be able to enjoy the opening ceremony of The Olympics and the excitement in Singapore of 08-08-08 and then on 08-11-08 we will host a fabulous ball as one of the cities involved in The Global Ball.

We are currently looking for a fabulous venue and sponsors.
