IN an effort to support wellness and work-life balance, the Fiji Development Bank (FDB) has provided sponsorship for Round 3 of the Business House Bowling Competition.
In a statement, the bank said its sponsorship highlighted ongoing support for community and business engagement.
“FDB understands it’s good business when it plays a role in bringing people together,” FDB chief executive officer Filimone Waqabaca said.
“From boardrooms to bowling lanes, we appreciate the opportunity to get the ball rolling with business and interpersonal connections that power Fiji’s economy.
“Events like this are where relationships start or they rekindle, and then they build from there.
“That’s just as important as any investment and we’re celebrating Fiji’s unique corporate culture.
“The competition reflects a uniquely Fijian tradition where business meets sport.
“Success is celebrated in friendships formed and laughter shared, along with a few lucky strikes along the way.”
The popular tournament attracts over 25 teams, bringing together both seasoned professionals and young up-and-comers, including participants from financial institutions, the business community and other service providers, creating an informal space for mentoring and idea-sharing.
It officially began on July 24 and will run for a duration of 8 weeks.
Organisations competing in the event include Telecom Fiji, Fiji Gas, the Unit Trust of Fiji, HFC Bank, and FNPF among others.
Adding to the spirit of camaraderie, FDB has also entered a team to take on the challenge alongside other businesses.
The cheque presentation was handed to the Suva Bowling Club representatives last week.
