IRIS was pleased to be a part of the British House information program alongside the Rio Olympic and Paralympic Games.
British House was a place of celebration of the best of Britain during the Rio 2016 Olympic and Paralympic Games, from GB sporting excellence through to its business, culture, and its capital city, London. For the duration of Rio 2016 British House was acting as a home away from home, where GB’s performances were celebrated and London and Great Britain showcased to the world.
As well as providing a base for Olympic and Paralympic GB’s athletes, British House hosted a series of events featuring speakers from the Olympic and Paralympic community, business leaders and global policymakers. Showcasing the best of British business, culture and science to international investors, policy-makers, buyers, influencers and decision-makers British House offered the ideal environment for UK organisations to forge new overseas connections and explore future partnership opportunities.
