Financial Times and The Brewery launch members' club during Olympics

20/06/2012

The Financial Times has partnered with pop-up members' club The Retreat at The Brewery to hold a series of business sessions and offer hospitality during the Olympics.

From 27 July to 12 August, The Retreat will be based at the London venue and will play host to a number of high profile business speakers and sponsors. The Retreat has been designed to provide the benefits associated with upscale hospitality – networking, entertaining and doing business.

The hospitality spaces will include The Country Club, with a nod to outdoor pursuits; a purpose-built cinema screening British classics along with the Games; and The Backstage area, offering members the chance to pamper themselves.

The Retreat will offer unlimited selected food, drink, entertainment and interactive options in its membership fee. Membership to The Retreat for 17 days is £2,500 +VAT  per person, while day membership is £245 +VAT per person.
