The 2016 edition of Citi Business Olympics, lived up to expectations by becoming the most patronized edition since the innovative idea was initiated by Citi FM.
Like previous years, the event, which is arguably the biggest gathering of corporate Ghana, saw sixty companies participating – the highest number ever.
The event ended successfully and on exciting note, as the 60 companies that competed in various games including volley ball, swimming, football, scrabble among others, worked hard for the trophies and for the bragging rights.
The event saw the various participants come from the banking, insurance, technology, pharmaceutical, real estate, automobile and Oil and Gas sectors.
At the end of the games, IFS Financial Services Limited, topped the list with three trophies. They won the Men’s Volley Ball, Women’s Swimming, and Men’s Tug of war.
