Brazilian Olympic Committee
Neoenergia is an official partner of the Brazilian Olympic Committee (COB) to support athletes from various Olympic sports, benefiting female athletes, including those who represent Team Brazil. The initiative expands the company's activities to further strengthen women's sports in the country and strengthens the brand's position after establishing itself as a pioneer in supporting women's soccer, through sponsorship of the Brazilian Women's Teams and the national club championship, the Brasileirão Feminino Neoenergia
.
Leadership in supporting women's sports
The new sponsorship consolidates Neoenergia's leadership as the company that, today, is recognized in the energy sector as the one that most supports women's sports in Brazil. The partnership's resources will be allocated to the COB in initiatives based on two pillars: gender equality and sustainability.
The partnership is aligned with the company's commitments to strengthen the role of women in society and to promote sustainability in the country. In addition, it aims to expand gender equality, both through a work environment with more jobs for women and by encouraging women's sports, increasingly strengthening the presence of great promising athletes.
Historic moment for gender equality in sports
The partnership with the Brazilian Olympic Committee comes at an important moment in the history of the Brazilian Olympic sport. For the first time, the number of female Team Brazil athletes will be higher than that of men at an Olympic Games, with more than 50% female participation.
Neoenergia, committed to the development of women's sports in Brazil, supports women from various sports and encourages their champion trajectories. The Brazilian Women's Soccer Team has been supported by the company since 2021 and, in 2022, Neoenergia went one step further and began sponsoring the women's national soccer championship, which was renamed the Neoenergia Women's Brasileirão. In 2023, she started supporting athletes who became brand ambassadors and, this year, are present at the world games.
