Mobile operator sponsored Azerbaijan’s biggest ever volunteer programme 

Nar Mobile will display an extensive in-store promotion across their centres in Azerbaijan in order to support the recruitment process. Nar Mobile will also create a unique mobile application that will allow the 12,000 volunteers to keep up to date with all the latest European Games news and specific information regarding their roles.

Mr Kent McNeley, CEO of Nar Mobile, said: “The European Games will be a wonderful event and we are very proud to be supporting Baku 2015 through partnership with their volunteer programme. Thanks to our advanced technical capability and strong relationship with the youth of Azerbaijan, we are in a good position to assist with the development of the volunteers and ensure a positive lasting legacy for the country.”

Volunteers will have the opportunity to fill vital Games-time roles that include welcoming dignitaries and athletes, working at sporting events or providing assistance to members of the media.

Mr Simon Clegg, Chief Operating Officer of Baku 2015, said: “The Baku 2015 volunteer programme is a major opportunity for the young people in Azerbaijan to be a part of the inaugural European Games. It is fantastic to know that we now have the full support of Nar Mobile in helping to recruit and train our volunteers. Their ability to connect with the young people of Azerbaijan will prove invaluable as we continue to count down the days to the European Games.”

Mobile operator will promote every volunteer with Nar Card, free balance as well as promote Baku 2015 through their social media channels, text messaging and a number of newly-created short films to engage with volunteers.
