“Skylab are very honoured to be associated with such a high profile global sports event, and one which we are pleased to contribute to professionally. We have been commissioned to film the proceedings across the two-day UnitedCity event on behalf of the organisers.”

Moreover, the connection with the host clubs is not a new one. The team at Skylab, with their distinct sports marketing sector strength has worked with both Manchester United and Manchester City in the past.
