Serge's IT background spans fifteen years of experience; incorporating technical and management skills.

During this time Serge completed expedition and stage adventure races and has obtained valuable experience and know-how to to understand and know what it takes to deliver high quality events. He is always in search of new challenges and motivated to compete in every race on the calendar!
