Manchester United wins the ‘Best Extranet’ category at the 2009 SORCE User Conference. Competing against both the Royal Horticultural Society and Spurgeons, delegates voted the Manchester United extranet delivered powerful benefits to its audience.

The Best Extranet category is awarded to organisations that have used their extranet to achieve innovations in communication and knowledge sharing with their external audience. The Manchester United extranet is used to create a one-stop-shop of information, contacts and collateral for the team’s international sponsors. Sponsors can use this resource to communicate with the club to book marketing and promotional activities and gain approval, directly from the sponsorship manager.

Held at the Chesford Grange Hotel in Kenilworth the annual SORCE User Conference brings the SORCE Intranet, Extranet and Portal user community together to share ideas and developments to enhance communication and efficiency using intranet, extranet or portal technology. The SORCE User community spans a wide range of industries and organisation types. It’s a unique opportunity for the exchange of ideas and for clients to share solutions to intranet, extranet and portal related communication or business challenges.
