IMS launches contest for mountain adventurers
Adventurers with a story to tell are being invited to enter the International Mountain Summit’s (IMS) competition to win a platform to tell their tales at the gathering in October.
For many outdoor enthusiasts, walking or climbing in the mountains is very personal experience, and they rarely return without visual mementos and a story.
Three winners will each be given between 30 and 40 minutes to present to the audience under the motto ‘IMS Adventure by the Gore-Tex brand’, after which there will be a half-hour of questions from the audience section.
"We want to spread the idea of the IMS to a broad audience,” said IMS executive Markus Gaiser. “We are looking forward to hearing interesting stories, told by people who experience the mountains in their own way.”
The winners will deliver their talks on 22, 23 and 25 October at the IMS in Brixen, Italy. Applications can be submitted online at www.experience-tour.com until 22 August.
