Lenovo and its subsidiary Motorola Mobility have officially partnered with FIFA as key sponsors of the inaugural 32-team FIFA Club World Cup 2025, set to take place in the United States starting June 14. As part of this partnership, Motorola has been named the Official Smartphone Partner of the tournament.
The upcoming tournament marks a new chapter in international club football, with 32 top clubs from six confederations competing across 63 matches over four weeks. This expanded format aims to elevate global engagement and redefine the prestige of club competition on the world stage.
As an Official Partner, Lenovo and Motorola will play a critical role in supporting tournament operations through the provision of cutting-edge technology. This includes AI-powered PCs, tablets, workstations, servers, and Motorola’s latest line of smartphones. These tools will be used by FIFA officials and the 32 qualified teams to streamline logistics, enhance content creation, and provide real-time collaboration throughout the event.
Motorola’s flagship smartphones, including models from the 2025 Motorola razr family, will also be used pitch-side to capture exclusive content during select matches. Lenovo and Motorola branding will be prominently featured in-stadium on LED boards and video screens before, during, and after games, amplifying the brands’ global visibility.
“Motorola is proud to support this new global club football landmark with smarter technology,” said Sergio Buniac, President of Motorola. “The FIFA Club World Cup 2025 is not only a showcase for elite football talent but also a platform to demonstrate how innovation can elevate the fan experience and support world-class events.”
FIFA Secretary General Mattias Grafström welcomed the collaboration, stating: “The inaugural FIFA Club World Cup will mark a new era in global club football—one that is inclusive, innovative and more connected than ever before. We’re delighted to have Motorola and Lenovo on board. Their expertise and global reach will enhance the tournament experience for fans, teams and partners alike.”
This partnership adds to Lenovo’s long-standing involvement in global sports events, reinforcing its mission to deliver smarter technology that empowers performance and connection—on and off the pitch.
