Samsung Kicks Off Its 2012 Olympic Games Campaign With David Beckham
Samsung Electronics launched its London 2012 Olympic Games campaign alongside Samsung’s Global Olympic Games Ambassador David Beckham at London's East Wintergarden. To kick off the process, David Beckham announced Gabriella Roseje as Samsung’s first nomination for a bearer of the Olympic Flame.
Gabriella Roseje, 18, is from Bermondsey, London. Ms Roseje was commended by Samsung and David Beckham for her outstanding work with young people from disadvantaged backgrounds using her sporting talent.
Beckham said, "Gabriella is an impressive and inspiring person. Not only is she successful in her own right, she willingly supports and helps those around her. Gabriella stands out for all the right reasons. I'm proud to nominate her as Samsung's first Olympic Torchbearer. The nomination campaign aims to give the unsung heroes in communities across the world their chance to shine in the London 2012 Olympic Torch Relay - it's Everyone's Olympic Games. Gabriella is perfect example of the kind of qualities we are looking for in a person to run with the Olympic Flame."
