Allianz Egypt, a leading insurance provider and a key member of the SanlamAllianz alliance, has renewed its long-term partnership with the Egyptian Paralympic Committee.
This extension continues until 2028, aligning with Allianz Group’s global sponsorship of the International Paralympic Committee (IPC). The collaboration highlights Allianz Egypt’s unwavering commitment to promoting inclusivity, diversity, and equality in sports.
Empowering Athletes Through Strategic Support
Allianz Egypt continues to place para sports at the core of its corporate social responsibility (CSR) agenda. This partnership goes beyond sponsorship, encompassing strategic support that enables Paralympic athletes in Egypt to compete at the highest levels and receive world-class training and medical resources.
Dr. Hossam El-Din Mostafa, Chairman of the Egyptian Paralympic Committee, emphasized the importance of the partnership, stating:”Since the beginning of our collaboration, Allianz Egypt has provided genuine support that fosters a sports ecosystem where our athletes can excel both locally and internationally.”
Showcasing Champions on the Global Stage
Charles Tawadros, CEO of Allianz Egypt and Managing Director of Allianz Life Assurance Company – Egypt, noted:“We believe in the transformative power of sport and its ability to build resilient, inclusive communities. Our partnership with the Egyptian Paralympic Committee reflects our strategic vision of enabling athletes to realize their full potential.”
As part of this initiative, Allianz Egypt proudly supports five elite Paralympic athletes in disciplines including para powerlifting, swimming, and badminton. Notable names such as Sherif Osman and Fatma Mahrous, silver medalists at the Tokyo 2021 and Paris 2024 Paralympic Games, stand as inspiring success stories of this collaboration.
Comprehensive Athlete Coverage and Olympic Support
In addition to its Paralympic efforts, Allianz Egypt also extends its support to Olympic athletes. In 2024, the company provided a comprehensive personal accident insurance policy for the Egyptian Olympic delegation. The policy included coverage for surgeries, physiotherapy, and all sport-related injuries, reinforcing Allianz Egypt’s role as a leading supporter of Egyptian athletes across all levels.
Driving Sustainable Development Through Sport
This strategic partnership not only strengthens Egypt’s presence in international para sports but also contributes to broader national development goals, including Egypt Vision 2030. Allianz Egypt continues to serve as a responsible corporate citizen, using sport as a catalyst for societal progress and sustainable growth.
