Originating around 3,000 years ago in Ancient Greece's Peloponnese region, the Olympic Games will make its way to Paris this year for it’s 33rd edition, attracting nearly 10,000 athletes. The Summer Games, scheduled to commence on July 26, will feature 329 medal events across 32 sports.
Being one of the most viewed sporting events in the world, brands across various sectors have seized this opportunity to align with the event, leveraging partnerships with the International Olympic Committee and the Paris Organizing Committee.
While most of the EUR 7 billion in private funding for the Paris 2024 Games comes from media rights, sponsorship and ticketing, private investment in long-term infrastructure projects, it also includes an IOC contribution of USD 1.7 billion in cash and services.
Additionally, the Indian Olympic Association (IOA), the governing body for the Olympic Movement and the Commonwealth Games in India, has already secured around Rs 50 crore in sponsorship revenue from reputable brands and establishments. This amount is nearly double the Rs 24 crore to Rs 28 crore raised for the Tokyo Games in 2020, and a staggering 2,000% increase from pre-Rio 2016 figures.
Moving further, the IOA has secured 14 Olympic partners for this year, which include:
