The Standard Chartered Mumbai Marathon belongs to the city, and while ten years for an event denotes stability and acceptance by the masses, it’s still just the beginning. There is yet a lot to be done and Procam International is committed to the task’s expectations.

Running on the Rajiv Gandhi Sea Link, the Marathon Flame coming to Mumbai, the release of the Marathon Anthem, the launch of the special edition Marathon coffee table book and the commission of the Special Edition Trophies have all been landmark occasions in the short but eventful journey of the Marathon. There is still more to come.


The countdown to the 11th edition of the Standard Chartered Mumbai Marathon was announced by Procam International in the presence of Government dignitaries, the Hon’ble Mayor of Mumbai, Sunil Kaushal, CEO Standard Chartered, the title sponsors, Vishal Jhunjhunwala, Head Corporate Brand Tata Consultancy Services, the Associate Sponsor, Event Ambassador John Abraham, and representatives of the various partners to the event at a glittering show hosted by Tara Sharma.


The occasion was also used to announce the final registration figures, give details on the Get Active Event Expo, introduce Tui India as the new Travel Partner and announce the live telecast of the Event on Star Sports.
