Interactive is one of North Melbourne’s largest supporters, so when the company invited James Brayshaw and Brad Scott to the turning of the sod on its new construction site, the duo was there without hesitation.

Along with Victorian Premier Ted Baillieu, Brayshaw and Scott joined Interactive managing director Christopher Ride for the announcement of a new $30 million headquarters in Port Melbourne.

“Interactive is a great sponsor of ours and it’s fantastic for us to come out and give them our support for a change,” Brayshaw told kangaroos.com.au.

“We know he gets a lot of enjoyment from the football club, but this is his real passion and he should be commended for what he and his team have been able to build.”

Interactive is the club’s coaches box sponsor and Ride is a high-level match committee member and also travelled with the team to Utah last year.

“Chris is always there for North Melbourne and it’s brilliant to see this new project going well for him and Interactive,” Scott commented.

After its completion, the new Interactive IT centre is expected to generate more than 300 new jobs.
