Pienaar, FNB still a team when it comes to sponsorship

Francois Pienaar, former Western Cape provincial executive and former head of sponsorships for FNB will continue to manage the bank's sponsorships, it was announced earlier this week. Pienaar started a new venture, focusing on the sport, entertainment and the media industry, on 1 September 2009, known as Advent Sport Entertainment and Media (ASEM).

"FNB has appointed ASEM and Francois due to his extensive experience in the sponsorship field and knowledge of the bank. In making the appointment, we believe that we will achieve continuity in an already successful sponsorship programme. We further believe that this partnership will allow our sponsorship initiatives to be guided by his knowledge of the industry," said Derek Carstens, FNB brand director.

Commented Pienaar, "The six years I have been with FNB have been a highlight of my corporate career. I have been privileged to work with a great team and wonderful people. The entertainment industry has always been part of my life and I look forward to the next chapter in my career.

"I wish my successor Stephan Claassen, in his role as the newly appointed FNB Western Cape provincial executive and the team all the best for the future and look forward to working with FNB in managing their sponsorships," added Pienaar.
