iCapital Network, a New York City-based financial technology platform connecting advisors and their high-net-worth investors to alternative investment managers, has announced a three-year brand ambassador partnership with golf pro Lee Westwood, according to a news release.
“As iCapital accelerates its international expansion, having such an internationally renowned brand ambassador further demonstrates our commitment to bringing innovative solutions to the global marketplace,” said Lawrence Calcano, iCapital chairman and CEO, in the news release.
iCapital launched the sponsorship today at the Masters Tournament in Augusta, Ga., the first major men’s championship of 2021, where Westwood debuted the iCapital logo.
“I am incredibly excited to represent the iCapital brand and the values that we share,” Westwood said in the news release. “I look forward to a long-term partnership and I’m grateful for their team’s support.”
Westwood is currently ranked 20th in the Official World Golf Ranking. In October 2010, he was named the world’s No. 1 golfer, becoming the first British player since Nick Faldo in 1994 to hold that position.
