Altenar Extends Sponsorship of Isle of Man Marathon

This year’s edition of the popular event will take place on 10th August and will mark the third year of the provider’s sponsorship deal, which forms part of its broader strategy to invest in the Isle of Man community.

At the heart of the action, Altenar’s Chief Financial Officer (CFO) John Quaye will once again take to the undulating course, reinforcing the provider’s dedication to hands-on local engagement. This year, participants will also receive newly designed medals, t-shirts, and trophies, while extra medals will be awarded to winners of the Isle of Man Marathon Championships.

Fundamental to Altenar’s strategy is forging successful ties with Isle of Man locals and finding proactive ways to reinforce its affinity with the area. As part of its wider CSR goals, Altenar has also signed a new deal to sponsor the island’s Gran Fondo cycling race, further expanding its presence in the sporting scene.

John Quaye said: “We are delighted to support the Isle of Man Marathon and Half Marathon for a third year. It has been such a rewarding journey, and we’ve thoroughly enjoyed being part of such a meaningful local tradition. We are also pleased to announce that Altenar will remain the official sponsor for another two years at least.

“Being able to actively support our community and engage in events like this is something we take great pride in at Altenar.”
