Global Sports Medicine leader Smith+Nephew to sponsor select players competing at Wimbledon, highlighting advanced solutions for joint repair
Smith+Nephew (LSE:SN, NYSE:SNN), the global medical technology company, announces it will once again support select players during high profile matches at The Championships, Wimbledon in 2025. The world’s oldest and most prestigious tennis tournament serves as a perfect backdrop to showcase Smith+Nephew’s purpose of ‘Life Unlimited’ - making a difference in patients’ lives through the excellence of a diverse Sports Medicine product portfolio and the application of new technologies.
Tennis is a high-impact sport that places great stress on various areas of the body – especially joints – often resulting in injury. Some of the latest technologies and solutions from Smith+Nephew for joint repair include:
“Our inaugural turn sponsoring select players during The Championships, Wimbledon in 2024 was a tremendous success supporting athletes from across the globe - including Jasmine Paolini all the way to the Ladies Final,” said Christie van Geffen, SVP Global Sports Medicine Marketing for Smith+Nephew. “We were able to uniquely feature the Smith+Nephew brand along with our leading Sports Medicine technology portfolio - designed to help weekend warriors and world-class athletes get back to competing and doing what they love.”
