The FIBA WASL features elite professional basketball clubs
from West Asia, the Gulf regions, and South/Central Asia. CFI will support 18 teams across 96 games in 11 cities.
"At CFI, we are committed to empowering sports and
fostering excellence, which are core aspects of our corporate ethos. This
sponsorship not only boosts our brand visibility but also aligns with our
values of promoting sportsmanship, teamwork, and community engagement,"
commented Hisham Mansour, Co-founder and Managing Director of CFI.
As part of the sponsorship, CFI will receive
branding rights. This includes TV exposure, on-court LED displays,
and court-side advertising. In addition to increased visibility, CFI's clients
and community will have opportunities to participate in exclusive events and
competitions.
Marwan Hayek, Chairman and CEO of eVulpa, the exclusive
commercial rights holder of FIBA WASL, stated: "Partnering with CFI for
the long term is a testament to our shared vision of promoting excellence and
innovation in sports. CFI's support enhances the competition's prestige and
visibility."
CFI Partners with Airlines
Earlier, CFI
announced advertising partnerships with major airlines like Emirates,
Etihad, Qatar Airways, Royal Jordanian, and Middle East Airlines as reported by
Finance Magnates. These
agreements involve airing CFI's "Be One Step Ahead" TV commercial on
all flights operated by these airlines, alongside gaining branding rights for
broader visibility.
Some agreements are already active, with more to follow
soon, aiming to boost CFI's brand presence and promote financial literacy.
These airline deals complement CFI's existing sponsorships, which include the
Saudi Super Cup finals, FIBA
WASL Final 8, and partnerships with sports organizations across MENA and
globally.
