Leading Brands Rally Behind World-Class Tennis in Singapore A long-standing supporter of tennis worldwide, BNP Paribas, the presenting sponsor of the Singapore Tennis Open 2026, will bring its global “Points for Change” Programme to this year’s tournament.
Under this programme, each point scored during the tournament will be converted into a donation to Daughters of Tomorrow, a Singapore-registered charity that empowers women from low-income families to achieve financial independence and creates pathways to upward social mobility for themselves and their families.
Karine Delvallée, Regional Head of Southeast Asia and CEO of BNP Paribas Singapore Branch, said, “BNP Paribas has supported tennis for more than fifty years and our connection with the sport in Singapore goes back to 2014, when we supported the WTA Finals here through 2018.
“Returning as presenting sponsor of the Singapore Tennis Open feels like a natural continuation of that relationship. It takes years for a player to build a career in this sport, and we believe supporting tennis calls for the same long-term commitment.
“This is why we value partnerships like this one. The Singapore Tennis Open gives women’s professional tennis an important stage in Southeast Asia and gives fans here an event they can look forward to.
“With such an exciting field coming to Singapore this year, we are very pleased to be doing this alongside The Kallang, and look forward to welcoming our clients, players and tennis fans to the courts in September.”
