This year our annual lunch is being held at the Institute of Directors
in Pall Mall and the food will be prepared by head chef Roger Evans, featured
on Masterchef in February. We split the bill between everyone who attends
so "absolutely no freebies". Get your hands in your pockets, blow the cobwebs from your wallets and purses, and stump up the 110 English pounds to cover
the cost of everything.
We have a top line-up of VIP guests, with football, rugby, tennis, athletics, boxing and cricket,
all in the room. BBC, Sky and Setanta are all represented at senior level
as are sports bodies such as Sport England, The Football Foundation,
The FA, Paralympics, The London Marathon etc.

For 15 years the Creative community have an annual event, www.podgelunch.com and for seven years the digital community have had www.digitalpodge.co.uk
and it just seems to be a winning format that brings the most senior industry players together without ever taking itself too seriously.
The creative podge lunches took five years to become "must-attend" events
in everyone's diaries. Sports Podge achieved this in its second year and year
four is already over-subscribed. An amazing achievement for an event
that has no other agenda other than senior people in the industry meeting their peers
over a fun lunch/supper in a great venue.
