On June 4, 2024, after a year of competition around the world, 24 teams of Sanofi athletes competed in a grand Final at the Stade Charléty across five sports disciplines: football, wheelchair basketball, archery, table tennis, and relay racing.
The Essence of the Sanofi Cup
As Chris Liwski, Legal Director North America and former Olympian, says: science and sport have a lot in common: passion, dedication, teamwork... the list goes on.
More than just a competition, the Sanofi Cup is a celebration of our values worldwide and a symbol of our partnership with Paris 2024. Throughout the past year, Sanofi employees from all countries have been able to "reveal their potential."
Thanks to a dedicated app and local events, participants have tested their limits around three pillars: sports, inclusivity, and engagement.
Stretch
A journey into personal growth. Be it pushing Sanofians’ physical limits or adopting a new wellness practice, this challenge focuses on personal evolution.
Take Action
A commitment to the community. Through platforms like "We Volunteer" and local initiatives, Sanofians have the opportunity to give back and make a genuine impact.
One Sanofi
A celebration of unity in diversity. This group challenge encourages Sanofians to come together and get involved in a local sporting event, whether competing, coordinating, or cheering from the sidelines.
“In sports, I always find it very exciting to play with people who are significantly better than me. Same goes for work. You can learn a lot when you work with more experienced people.”

The Incredible Sanofi Cup Final in Paris

Beyond the thrill of the competition, the Sanofi Cup Final was about recognizing Sanofians who, throughout the competition, stood out for their sporting or solidarity achievements.
7,000 people gathered at the Stadium under the One Sanofi banner! The Eurasia and GSA (Germany, Switzerland, and Austria) teams won bronze and silver, respectively, while the Algerian team won gold, bringing the trophy home!
