Sir Clive Lloyd, the iconic Guyanese cricketer and former West Indies captain, has joined One Communications as a brand ambassador, bringing his legacy of leadership and unity to the company’s vision.
Damian Blackburn, President of ATNI and CEO of One Communications, expressed excitement about the collaboration, highlighting Sir Clive’s influence both on and off the field. He described him as an extraordinary individual whose legacy reflects bold, innovative leadership. “Sir Clive has always embodied great sportsmanship while unifying the Caribbean through sport. His leadership on the global stage mirrors our mission at One Communications – to deliver world-class services that connect and empower communities. Just like Sir Clive built a team of exceptional talent during his captaincy, we are assembling the best team to redefine connectivity in the region,” Blackburn stated.
Recognized for his immense contributions to cricket, Sir Clive was knighted in early 2020 and later honored with the Order of the Caribbean Community (OCC) in July 2024 at the 47th Regular Meeting of the CARICOM Heads of Government. His name remains synonymous with excellence and leadership in the Caribbean.
Blackburn further emphasized the significance of having Sir Clive associated with One Communications, stating, “There is no doubt that Sir Clive represents a strong global brand in his own identity, and we are not only privileged but also honored that the good name, standards, and reputation of Sir Clive Lloyd will be associated with the good things that you will be seeing from us at ONE in the coming months.”
Sir Clive himself expressed enthusiasm for the partnership, reflecting on his journey and his commitment to contributing to the community. “I can’t think of a better thing to do than this partnership. I am impressed with the arrangements made and I hope the outcome is very fruitful. I didn’t think I’d be here for so long, I’m 80 years old, and to come back home to Guyana, I think I made the right decision. I wish One Communications great success: it’s a first-class company … I’m looking forward to helping them in any way possible and in turn help the community.”
With this collaboration, One Communications aims to strengthen its commitment to innovation and connectivity, aligning its brand with the values of excellence and unity that Sir Clive has long represented.
