Borenius Continues as the Main Partner of the Finnish Paralympic Committee until 2028
We are pleased to share that our long-term pro bono partnership with the Finnish Paralympic Committee continues until 2028.
We have been a partner of the Finnish Paralympic Committee since 2013 and the main partner since 2017. This newly signed agreement covers the Paralympic years of Milano-Cortina 2026 and Los Angeles 2028, marking 15 years of close collaboration. This partnership is deeply value-driven and has significantly advanced the position of para-athletes over the years.
"The collaboration between the Finnish Paralympic Committee and Borenius has been important in promoting equality and supporting para-athletes. We are proud to continue this journey and look forward to achieving even greater milestones together," says Partner Markus Kokko, reflecting on the history and future of the partnership.
As one of the longest-standing partners of the Finnish Paralympic Committee, we assist the Committee and para-athletes with legal and contractual matters and have also contributed to developing the classification system for para-sports and ensuring equal treatment of athletes in various situations. This partnership is a great part of our corporate social responsibility programme.
