LA Summer Olympics

Why Brands Can’t Miss the Summer Games

Summer Olympics: July 14-30, 2028
Summer Paralympics: August 15-27, 2028

LA28 will be one of the highest-visibility moments in global sport. Brands don’t have to be official Olympic or Paralympic partners to work with athletes around the Games. With the right strategy, and careful attention to Rule 40, personal sponsor partnerships with women athletes can give brands a powerful way to connect with audiences without implying an official association with the Games or Team USA. Research shows 88% of sports fans view women athletes as role models, making them powerful, trusted ambassadors for brands.
