Team Forces is delighted to announce that Palantir Technologies, who build critical software for data analytics and data-driven decision making, will be supporting us on our joint mission to create wellbeing through sport and physical activity for our armed forces personnel.
As part of their silver level sponsorship Palantir will be the headline sponsor of the Rundle Cup which is the annual polo match between the Army and Navy. They will also be a secondary sponsor of the Armed Forces Remembrance rugby match, held each year to commemorate those who have fallen.
In addition to supporting armed forces cricket and equitation, Palantir will donate to the Team Forces ‘good causes’ fund which offers grants to groups and communities wishing to undertake challenging, adventurous activities to help armed forces personnel, including WIS veterans.
Guy Williams, Head of Defence for Palantir Technologies UK Ltd. said: “As a proud sponsor of a range of Armed Forces charities and non-profit organisations, Palantir is delighted to add our support to Team Forces and their mission to improve the lives of personnel and veterans through sport. As champions of the UK Armed Forces community, both past and present, Palantir is committed to encouraging veteran employment and positive service transition and helping make the UK the best place in which to serve.”
Maj Gen Lamont Kirkland, CEO Team Forces commented: “We are delighted to welcome Palantir on board as a Silver sponsor of Team Forces. Their support will be vital in helping members of the armed forces participate in activities which help to improve health, wellbeing and recovery as well as enabling those wounded or disabled to have access to sport as part of their rehabilitation and recuperation. Together, we will help the best get better.”
