Barry Snellgrove
After a number of years in major advertising agencies and as account director or national brands, Barry headed up a sponsorship spin-off for an international advertising agency.
He then formed his own consultancy and subsequently joined with PHC. Barry has 25 years experience in the sponsorship industry mostly in sport but also in music, the arts, and charitable fundraising. He has been intimately involved in planning and running numerous events, some of major importance.
He has a considerable track record working with a diverse range of prestigious sponsors generating significant income and has worked closely with sponsors in the activation and exploitation of sponsorship properties to maximise PR exposure and return on investment. He specialises in consulting with clients to solve sponsorship challenges - from developing packaging and sales strategies to determining the right sponsorship opportunities and customising measurement processes. Many projects have required multi sponsors which, in itself, creates the challenge of identifying suitable and compatible co-sponsors as well as ensuring their needs and characteristics fit with the event.
Barry handled all aspects of event management at The World Student Games in Sheffield in the 1990’s and the European Hockey Championships in Manchester in 2007.
He currently consults the European Sponsorship Association, the professional body of the sponsorship industry, on a part-time basis.
