Global Insurance Firm Client Experience (Open Championship)

The Open Championship Executive Experience

The Global Insurance Firm Client Event Experience was a privately hosted executive golf and incentive programme delivered across Scotland for a senior stakeholder group.

Designed around The Open Championship and built as a once-in-a-lifetime golf journey, the programme combined championship links golf, five-star accommodation, cultural touring, and Claret Jug hospitality. St Andrews for Golf acted as the single delivery partner, overseeing the concept, planning, transport, and on-the-ground execution across both the East and West Coasts of Scotland.

The experience balanced world-class golf with curated non-golfing activities, ensuring every guest felt fully included throughout the programme.
