Team Global Express is pleased to announce that Group CEO Christine Holgate has been appointed as a ‘Beyond Greatness Champion’ for the FIFA Women's World Cup 2023™ .
‘Beyond Greatness Champions’ are a group of inspirational trailblazers chosen by FIFA who represent the best of Australia and Aotearoa New Zealand across sport, entertainment, media, arts, politics and business. The Champions are a team who are united by their achievements and commitment for change; history makers who exemplify what it means to go ‘Beyond Greatness’.
Christine’s appointment is a highlight of Team Global Express’s commitment to supporting the FIFA Women's World Cup 2023™ as the Official Logistics Services Provider, the ‘Team behind the Teams’.
On her appointment as a ‘Beyond Greatness Champion’, Christine Holgate said:
“I’m honoured to be part of FIFA’s Beyond Greatness Champions, to encourage and inspire the next generation to recognise their brilliance and challenge the status quo. I look forward to sharing my passion for women’s participation in sport, greater inclusivity, and unity as I represent the FIFA Women’s World Cup 2023™ in efforts to shape moments of empowerment for women on and off the pitch.”
As part of her role, Christine will participate in the ‘Beyond Greatness Speaker Series’, at the Museum of Contemporary Art in Sydney on 2 August. This event will celebrate the values and aspirations of the FIFA Women's World Cup 2023™ – diversity, authenticity, inclusion, passion and excellence. Christine will also attend the FIFA Women’s Football Convention later in August in Sydney, which will highlight the growth of the women’s game globally.
Team Global Express is the Official Logistics Services Provider of the FIFA Women’s World Cup™, transporting equipment, luggage and assets and providing dedicated warehousing solutions to receive, store, assemble and distribute – all to ensure the Tournament never stops.
Team Global Express is passionate about supporting women both within the logistics industry and further afield, so the opportunity to team up with the FIFA Women’s World Cup™ was a perfect fit.
The FIFA Women's World Cup 2023™ kicks off on 20 July in Sydney when Australia’s CommBank Matildas play the Republic of Ireland and in Auckland when the Football Ferns play Norway.
