Bancamiga consolidates its support and promotion of sports in Venezuela
On her way to Paris 2024, the financial institution will support runner Joselyn Brea, just as it has accompanied athletes such as soccer player Deyna Castellanos, five-time world karate champion Antonio Díaz, or climber Federico (Fuco) Pisani
Sport is one of the fields of action that Bancamiga promotes in the country. And it does so by promoting its practice among its collaborators and supporting amateur and professional sports and figures that serve as an example of honesty, commitment and responsibility.
In recent years, Bancamiga has been accompanying athletes who are a reference for Venezuelans who are struggling to achieve their goals. Now in its quest to reach the Paris 2024 Olympic Games, Bancamiga will give its full support to the athlete Joselyn Brea, who this Sunday made her debut in style in the 3,000-meter flat event in the competitive Diamond League, organized by the World Athletic, the governing body for athletics in the world, explains a statement from the financial organization.
The executive president of Bancamiga Banco Universal, Ariel José Martínez, expressed his satisfaction with the support for this 28-year-old young woman, who will help position the brand in a segment that is key for the country, since sport is synonymous with commitment and honesty, values that are essential in the growth of Bancamiga and Venezuela.
“For Bancamiga it is essential to promote sport within the institution, because it is associated with a better state of health of its staff and therefore in terms of improvements in performance and productivity. It is also important to promote it abroad due to the impact it has due to the visibility of the company in areas related to our social responsibility and the construction of a better country”, he pointed out.
He also recalled that in April, Bancamiga launched the Together we make a team campaign, which has as its leitmotif “Dream and do it big. Believe, grow and let no one stop you”, where five passionate and committed Venezuelans (soccer player Deyna Castellanos, karate fighter Antonio Díaz, climber Federico Pisani, photographer Henry González and designer Amanda Dudamel) left behind endless obstacles to achieve their goals.
“Today we see Brea as an athlete who is focused on continuing her training and preparation plans with a view to obtaining her ticket to Paris 2024, achieving an outstanding participation in the World Cup in Budapest, scheduled from August 19 to 27 of this year, and a medal at the Pan American Games in Santiago de Chile, which will be held between October 20 and November 5, 2023. It is a pleasure for Bancamiga to accompany her in making those dreams come true”.
