About Laureus
Laureus uniting the world through sport
Laureus celebrates the universal power of sport to bring people together as a force for good, passionately embodying the very spirit of sport - the pursuit of excellence, overcoming challenges, celebrating achievement and excellence, and winning against the odds. Laureus attracts groups of people who share a belief in the power of sport to break down barriers, to engage with others and to change the world for the better.
Foundation
The Laureus Sport for Good Foundation supports and funds sports-related programmes that bring together sporting heroes and children in deprived communities. These inspirational projects achieve real improvement in their quality of life.
Academy
Laureus brings together an Academy of sporting legends whose collective passion, influence and authority across the whole field of sport and human endeavour means they can promote and inspire changes in sporting and social issues, nationally and internationally.
Awards
Laureus regularly brings together the worlds of sport and entertainment to celebrate and honour the very best achievements of excellence in sport, through the Laureus World Sports Awards, and to showcase and generate support for the work of the Laureus Sport for Good Foundation.
Laureus seeks to inspire hope and positive change for children around the world, using sport as a unique social vehicle. This is made possible through the backing from its Founding Partners, Mercedes-Benz and IWC Schauffhausen and ICAP as a Global Corporate Supporter of the Foundation.
For these children a better future is a dream. Through sport Laureus seeks to inspire a better reality.
