Corporate ski incentives experience a lift this season

26/03/2012

Independent ski specialist Powder White has experienced its best ever season for corporate enquiries. 

Powder White co-founder Fraser Ewart-White said interest came mostly from the banking and IT sectors season, with a focus on innovative itineraries incorporating activities such as ice diving and tobogganing.

“The enquiries we are receiving – from both event organisers and from companies direct – are for a flexible, value tailor-made experience, taking advantage of our ability to provide a one-stop shop for every aspect of the ski experience,” he said. “Budget is certainly a consideration with an emphasis on quality, authentic and innovative experiences rather than out-and-out luxury.”

The 2011/12 season also saw an increase in hotel reservations – averaging £20,000 per booking – alongside whole chalet hire for the corporate market.
