Consultants take home the title of the first-ever competition that pits the best of the construction industry against each other for 18-holes of golf
Big Project ME and ME Consultant hosted more than 70 golfers from across the construction industry in the region for the first-ever Contractors vs Consultants Cup.
Held at The Address Montgomerie in Dubai on December 12, 2018, the day-long tournament brought together the winners of the two previous golf days organised by Big Project ME and ME Consultant – the Contractors Cup 2018 and the Consultants Cup 2018.
Teams from both sides of the industry faced off against each other for 18-holes, while also competing in on-course competitions and networking in a relaxed and fun-filled environment.
Targeted at senior executives and decision-makers from the region’s most prominent consultants and contractors, attendees for the first-ever Contractors vs Consultants Cup were made up of representatives from Multiplex, Six Construct, Faithful + Gould, theVEROstudio and HKA Global Consulting, and many others.
