World-class venues play key role in Commonwealth Games 2022 decision<\/h3>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

The wealth of existing sports arenas and facilities in the West Midlands has been a key factor in awarding Birmingham host city status for Commonwealth Games 2022.<\/p>\n

Four world-class indoor venues will be supplied by leading venue management company, NEC Group \u2013 whose senior team played a pivotal role in the bid process. There are also plans for the Group to host both a media centre and a dedicated broadcast facility.<\/p>\n

Commenting on the results, Paul Thandi, chief executive of NEC Group, said:<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s a brilliant early Christmas present to get confirmation today that Birmingham has been selected as host city. Host cities are required to demonstrate world-class sporting facilities and NEC Group is proud to be supplying four of our top venues across Birmingham and Solihull. All our sites had to meet rigorous guidelines around athletes\u2019 needs, technical specifications, seating capacity and Games-time logistics.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis result is testament to our track record of delivering large-scale international sporting events and investing significantly into our venues to set us apart from our competitors. It also reflects the expertise and professionalism of our people.<\/p>\n

\u201cSecuring the bid is great news for the city and surrounding area and great news for NEC Group. It\u2019s a celebration of Birmingham\u2019s sporting culture and equally exciting for the local economy \u2013 creating opportunities for people across the region and guaranteeing that Summer 2022 will be a busy period for us.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis has been a great team effort by many people based in Birmingham and on the wider team. I would particularly like to congratulate Birmingham Council City Leader Cllr Ian Ward and Mayor of the West Midlands, Andy Street as well as our own MD of NEC Group Arenas, Phil Mead, international sports consultant Debbie Jevans and Birmingham City Council Corporate Director Waheed Nazir.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cMEETINGS KILL CREATIVITY\u201d
\nMOO launches statement Notebook in first collaboration
\nwith artist Timothy Goodman<\/h3>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Digital print and design company MOO has collaborated with artist Timothy Goodman on a limited edition Notebook, available to order from 17 October. Featuring Goodman\u2019s original illustrations and a unique illustrated quote, \u201cMeetings Kill Creativity\u201d, the matte black and silver foil-covered Notebook serves as the perfect office statement accessory. The Notebook\u2019s centre pages also include a full page illustration in Goodman\u2019s signature mural style, against a sunshine yellow paper backdrop. Aiming to inspire the true creative in everyone \u2013 from incessant list makers to habitual doodlers \u2013 the MOO x Timothy Goodman Hardcover Notebook is being sold exclusively at moo.com for AU$32.49.<\/p>\n

\u201cAs a creative person, I loathe meetings. Yet, as a business owner, I need to be in them a lot. I\u2019ve been using MOO for a long time, and I love the irony that people will be using my limited edition notebook while sitting in another boring meeting. I wanted to remind them to keep the meeting short,\u201d says Timothy Goodman.<\/p>\n

The limited edition Notebook joins MOO\u2019s existing collection with the same array of specially designed and thoughtful features:
\n\u2022 The paper: Swedish-made, archival Munken Kristall paper never yellows and provides a crisp white non-glare canvas on a silky smooth stock. The Notebook also includes 16 pages of highlight yellow paper in the middle, as an accent or a divider \u2013 two pages in the centre feature an additional piece of Timothy Goodman\u2019s work.
\n\u2022 The binding: the lay-flat design is no accident \u2013 the Swiss binding means every page stays perfectly flat. It\u2019s also helpful for left-handed writers who often wrestle with pages scrunching up.
\n\u2022 The cover and slipcase: MOO\u2019s Notebook is bound with cloth, giving it a feel of exceptional quality. The custom-designed slipcase keeps the pages protected and pristine, and also provides a perfect way to neatly archive old Notebooks.
\n\u2022 Useful little extras: additional elements include a heat-sealed ribbon that will never fray and a self-adhesive business card holder to keep business cards, receipts and more on hand.<\/p>\n

\u201cAt MOO, design is at the heart of everything we do, and we celebrate that by partnering with some of our favourite designers to bring their unique take on our products to our customers,\u201d said Toby Hextall, Director of Product Design at MOO. \u201cWe love Timothy\u2019s sense of irony and powerful message, after all we could all use fewer meetings and more creativity in our lives!\u201d<\/p>\n
