Low-flying Hippo’s at the Ecommerce Open in Munich

Hippo sponsored the Ecommerce Open 2016 and raised over 2000 EUR for charity.

An unusual sight at the Ecommerce Open, the annual golf tournament in Munich where influencers and decision makers from the ecommerce industry meet. Besides normal golf balls, bright orange Hippo’s were flying through the Bavarian skies. At the ‘Lakeshot’, sponsored by Hippo, contestants could try and drive a Hippo into a designated hole in the middle of a pond. For 5 euro’s, each contestant got three Hippos to try. The revenue of the event was handed over for charity to the childs home AtemReich in the Munich area. In total, more than 2.000 euro’s were collected.
