Alton Towers Resort recruits celebrity lookalikes to host conferences next  February  
 
A recent poll by the Alton Towers Resort revealed that a staggering 90% of people think Apprentice star Lord Alan Sugar is the most inspirational business figure in the UK, distantly followed by entrepreneur Sir Richard Branson and Acadia Group founder Sir Philip Green (with 5% of the votes each).  Inspired by the results, the Alton Towers Resort has created a ‘celebrity lookalike’ conference for the month of February 2011.
 
Offering companies the chance to enjoy a corporate gathering ‘with a difference,’ the celebrity lookalike package will to provide some extra motivation and entertainment to all conference centre visitors next February. From hosting brainstorms to recording the minutes of meetings, each business guru lookalike will be on hand for the entire duration of each conference booked at the Alton Towers Resort.
 
Dominique Sidley, Head of Trade and Corporate Sales at the Alton Towers Resort said, “With the popularity of shows such as The Apprentice and Dragon’s Den, we understand how important and motivating influential business figures can be. Whilst we can’t provide the gurus themselves we’ve tried to find the next best thing by working with a host of their lookalikes. However, if inspiration from a business brain isn’t exactly what you’re looking for, we’re also happy to source a range of lookalikes from the world of showbusiness to add that ‘je ne sais quoi’ to your conference.”
 
The Resort’s conference centre caters for all occasions, from hosting large residential conferences and awards dinners to team building activities and departmental away-days.
