It has been a very busy and productive month for GRM Marketing, with projects taking us from the Scottish slopes to North Wales, Italy and Portugal.

We brought Uniqohr in as sponsors of the Scottish National Ski Championships at Hillend, the National Downhill Series at Fort William and the Brutal Triathlon in Llanberis. Three very different events that gave the brand opportunities to communicate and discuss brand strengths with different athletes and communities.

Alongside the event programme, we delivered media training at Glenmore Lodge and continued our work with Foiling Week and Scottish artist Mark Sib. Mark’s portrait of Giulia Conti, painted at Foiling Week in Lake Garda, has gained added attention following the announcement that Giulia is joining the Ferrari Hypersail sailing team.

In Portugal, we have also been working to bring investors and sponsors to AD San Joanense FC, supporting the club’s commercial ambitions.

It has been a month of challenging activity, practical work, and strong collaboration. Great work by the talented Uniqohr team, partners and event organisers who helped us achieve our objectives across each project. Plenty more to build on in the months ahead.

GRM Marketing
A portrait of Italian sailing champion Giulia Conti by Scottish artist Mark Sib will be exhibited at the Genoa International Boat Show from 1 – 6 October, ahead of a charity auction supporting young sailors in foiling.
The portrait was commissioned through Glasgow-based GRM Marketing and painted by Sib during Foiling Week on Lake Garda in July. The finished work will be displayed at The Foiling Organization / We Are Foiling stand, with all proceeds from its subsequent auction funding coaching and development opportunities for young foilers.

The announcement comes as Conti, Head of Performance at We Are Foiling, a World and European champion, four-time Olympian and winning helm of the inaugural Women’s America’s Cup, joins the Ferrari Hypersail Sailing Team.

Giulia Conti said: “I’m truly honoured to be the subject of this portrait, and it means a great deal to know that Mark’s work will help support the next generation of foilers. As Head of Performance at We Are Foiling, I see every day how much talent is waiting for an opportunity. This project will help give young sailors the chance to get on the water and pursue their ambitions. Foiling Week has always been about pushing boundaries, on and off the water, and this collaboration between art and sport captures that spirit perfectly. A huge thank you to Mark for his generosity and vision.”

Luca Rizzotti, founder of We Are Foiling, added: “Giulia is one of Italian foiling’s outstanding ambassadors. Seeing her through Mark Sib’s eyes felt like a natural way to bring our sport to a wider audience. The Genoa International Boat Show is the ideal setting, bringing together the Italian marine community. All proceeds from the auction will fund coaching and support programmes for young foilers starting out in the sport. Foiling can only grow if we give young sailors the opportunity to get on the water with the right people beside them. I thank Giulia and Mark for their generosity and hope that everyone who loves the sea will support this initiative.”

Sib’s previous sporting subjects include Scotland international Andy Robertson, whose portrait helped raise funds for his Scottish football charity, AR26.

Visitors and prospective bidders can view the Giulia Conti portrait throughout the show at The Foiling Organization / We Are Foiling stand, PS01, Boating Discovery, Pavilion S.

Brutal by name. Brutal by nature.

Uniqohr was proud to sponsor the Brutal Triathlon in North Wales—an extraordinary three-day event that tested every athlete’s strength, endurance and determination against one of the UK’s most demanding landscapes.

From the water to the bike and the unforgiving mountain stages, competitors faced changing weather, punishing climbs and relentless physical challenges. Yet the courage, camaraderie and sheer resilience shown throughout the event were truly inspiring.

This is exactly where performance clothing must prove itself. Uniqohr’s super-fine merino garments, blended with engineered fibres, are designed to provide comfort, temperature regulation and dependable performance in demanding conditions.

Congratulations to every athlete, organiser, volunteer and supporter who helped make this remarkable event possible.

Circular by design. Performance by nature.

At the worlds toughest triathlon one athlete told us “if you’re not wearing the right clothes it’s the end of your race”.

It’s a pretty bold statement, but speaking to athletes at the Brutal Triathlon reinforced just how important the right clothing is when you’re pushing your body to its limits.

Taking place every year in Llanberis, Wales, the Brutal is exactly what it sounds like…Brutal. One of its biggest challenges is the run up and down Wales’ highest mountain, Yr Wyddfa (Snowdon).

Our question to athletes was how do you prepare for the brutal and unpredictable weather?

Lara, the third-fastest female in the Canol category, put it simply: “Even when you’re cold, you’re going to get hot…if you’re not wearing the right clothes it’s the end of your race”.

Thats where uniqohr comes in.

We use 17.5-micron merino wool blended with engineered nylon to create a layer that helps regulate temperature and manage sweat, without feeling heavy or restrictive. And for the athletes taking on the triple triathlon, who can compete for up to 64 hours, the merino wool also brings another huge advantage…it is naturally odour resistant!

Because when you’re pushing your body to its limits, your clothing needs to keep up.

Fresh from his victory at Foiling Week!

Matteo Chaubud was delighted to receive his Uniqohr garment after finishing first overall at Foiling week. As a highly technical competitor, he appreciated the engineering, innovation, and attention to detail behind the product.

Designed with performance as a priority, the apparel reflects the same precision and functionality that are essential in high-level foiling competition.

Performance sportswear can make a meaningful difference for athletes competing at the highest level.

Hello from Lake Garda! 👋🇮🇹

Team Uniqohr has officially arrived at Fraglia Vela Malcesine for Foiling Week 2026. We are incredibly excited to spend the week surrounded by the absolute peak of sailing innovation, high-speed foiling, and cutting-edge marine tech.

If you're around the event village, come say hello to the team!

After 48 hours on the road from the UK to Italy (yes, by car!), Uniqohr are excited to have finally arrived at Foiling Week!

As an exhibitor at this event, we're giving attendees an exclusive first look at our new performance garment ahead of its official launch this October.

Perfect for athletes who are constantly moving between land and water, our garment continues to deliver thermal performance even in conditions where engineered fibres begin to lose effectiveness. This design ensures comfort and performance throughout the day in between sailing competitions.

Furthermore, with natural UPF 50+ sun protection built into the fabric, it's perfectly suited to the 30°C temperatures we're experiencing this week in Lake Garda.

If you're attending Foiling Week, come and see us we'd love to have a chat and show you the Uniqohr garments. And if you’re lucky, you may even come away with one!

Launching a new brand is never as straightforward as it looks.

There are always last-minute changes and unexpected challenges, however, that’s all part of bringing something new to market.

Despite some minor setbacks, we are excited to be heading to world sailing event, Lake Garda, for foiling week to support the launch of Uniqohr: a new premium sports wear brand.

Engineered using four fibers, Uniqohr has been built to deliver exceptional comfort for athletes who are at their peak performance.

We are excited to be a part of this journey and look forward to sharing more from Lake Garda. You can find regular updates from Uniqohr on instagram.

Great to be working with Glasgow sports artist Mark Sib, helping to deliver marketing and PR opportunities that bring some of sport's biggest personalities to life on canvas.

The last six months have been some of the most challenging and rewarding in GRM's history.

Over the past year, we have worked closely with a client seeking to acquire a Scottish football club. The process involved extensive due diligence, complex negotiations, board-level meetings, and multi-million-pound offers submitted to two separate clubs. While neither transaction ultimately reached completion, the experience reinforced the importance of patience, professionalism, and ensuring the right opportunity is secured.

Football club ownership is about far more than completing a deal. It is about finding the right club, the right people, and the right long-term vision.

That vision has now become a reality in Portugal.

Working alongside our client and investment partners, we have successfully invested in a Portuguese football club and immediately began strengthening the business foundations of the organisation. By reviewing operations, reducing unnecessary expenditure, and implementing stronger commercial disciplines, the club has already been placed in a significantly stronger financial position.

Our focus is simple: create a sustainable business model that supports success both off the field and on it.

Further investment is now underway through GRM and our partners, with exciting developments planned across commercial growth, sponsorship, infrastructure, player development, and international partnerships.

The journey is only beginning, but we are confident that the work being done today will deliver strong results for the club, its supporters, and its stakeholders in the years ahead.

A huge thank you to everyone who has contributed to this project so far. We look forward to sharing more news in the months ahead.

Scotland captain Andy Robertson and his wife Rachel are set to headline a special charity auction featuring two standout collector’s pieces, with all proceeds supporting their charity, AR26.
The ten-day auction, launching on May 1st, will offer bottle number 26 of the Official Tartan Army 28-Year-Old Scotch from Finn Thomson Wh**ky — a rare and highly coveted release — alongside an original oil portrait of Robertson by acclaimed Scottish artist Mark Sib.
One hundred percent of the proceeds will go directly to AR26, helping the charity continue its mission to create opportunities for young people across Scotland.
The striking portrait captures the intensity, leadership and pride synonymous with the Scotland skipper, rendered in Sib’s distinctive and expressive style. Known for his powerful depictions of sporting icons, the piece offers collectors and supporters a rare opportunity to own a visual legacy of one of Scotland’s most influential modern footballers.
The featured wh**ky embodies Scotland’s heritage and craftsmanship, matured for 28 years to deliver remarkable depth and character. Bottle number 26 carries special significance, reflecting Robertson’s iconic squad number at Liverpool FC and his long-standing association with the club. As he approaches the latter stages of an outstanding Liverpool career, the bottle stands as a symbolic tribute to a defining chapter in his football journey.
Speaking ahead of the auction, a spokesman for Robertson said:
“This is a special opportunity to bring together two things that represent Scotland so well — our football and our wh**ky — while raising funds for a cause that means a great deal to Andy and his family. Every bid will help create real opportunities for young people across the country.”
The auction will run for ten days from May 1st via https://www.scotchwh**kyauctions.com/ with bidding open to collectors and supporters worldwide.

Some moments in a career stay with you forever.

With the Dunblane anniversary just passing, being involved in organising the school fete 30 years ago is one of those stand out moments. After more than 30 years working across events, this was one of the toughest—handled with care, respect, and a real sense of responsibility.

It was a day full of contrasts. Global brands that would never usually share a space coming together. Familiar Warner Bros. characters stepping outside their usual worlds. With local celebrities, as well as Tony Cochrane coming together to show their support and solidarity.

But what mattered most was the community.

With the support of the parent council, the school staff and so many others behind the scenes, the fete went ahead—thoughtfully, sensitively, and with purpose. It became something more than an event.

It became the day Dunblane smiled again.

Scottish football is often underestimated in commercial conversations.

Recently, we’ve facilitated £3.5m in potential investment into Scottish clubs.

There’s a tendency to assume opportunity only exists at the very top. In reality, well-structured partnerships in the right environment can deliver serious commercial value.

From World Cups to the Olympic stage, British athletes don’t get there alone. Investors and sponsors play a critical role in making elite performance possible — from Mark Quinn supporting Team GB skiers, to Alan MacLeish backing Lilah Fear and her partner Lewis Gibson on the ice.

Sponsorship isn’t just logos and visibility. It’s access, opportunity, and the difference between potential and performance.

The future of sport depends on meaningful, sustained sponsorship that enables athletes to train, compete, and belong on the world stage.
