Sponsorship at BNP Paribas Fortis

Cinema, culture and tennis are the three pillars of BNP Paribas Fortis’s sponsorship strategy. But we do much more than just offer financial support. We believe in building sustainable and long-term relationships with our partners. What we like best doing the most is giving young talent a helping hand!

#WeLoveCinema

And we’re happy to show that love: we boost the Belgian film industry, help young filmmakers advance their careers, and support cinema in all its forms.

Our commitment to culture

Together with our long-standing partners, we make culture accessible to a broad audience. And we specifically support talented young people, helping them grow and achieve their dreams. 

Passionate about tennis

We’ve been proud tennis fans for over 50 years. We support the sport for everyone, at all levels and in all its forms. Find out how by following We Are Tennis on social media.

Our partnerships and initiatives

Belgian tennis federations

Together with Tennis Vlaanderen and Tennis Padel Wallonie Brussels, we help talented youngsters find their way to the top through our Young Talents Team. We also support international tournaments and organise the popular annual We Are Tennis Cup for our staff members.

Justine Henin Academy

We’ve been working with Justine Henin, or ‘Juju’ as she’s fondly known, and her tennis academy since 2022. Like the two Belgian tennis federations, we’ve joined forces with Justine to support eight rising stars aged 12-18. Our goal? Help them reach the sport’s highest level – because there’s nothing better than making dreams come true.

Your tennis club can apply for sponsorship through the BNP Paribas Fortis Tennis Affinity Program. If selected, your club will receive a fully customised sponsorship package. Want to know more

We Love Cinema

Together with Brightfish, our creative cinema partner, we shine a spotlight on the Belgian and international film industry through our dedicated website, social media and a monthly film magazine. And every year, we also organise the We Love Cinema Days, when tickets at most Belgian cinemas cost just €6.

Young Talent Awards

As you’ve probably realised, We Love Cinema! That’s why, in 2023, we launched the Young Talent Awards – a short film competition for filmmakers aged 18 to 30. The winner gets their film screened for two weeks in Belgian cinemas and receives a budget to fund their next project. 

Ostend Film Festival

We’ve been a proud partner of the Ostend Film Festival since 2014, showcasing exclusive previews and award ceremonies every year. The highlight is the Ensors, the Flemish film and television awards. Since 2021, the festival has also hosted the Jamies, which recognise the best creators of online videos.

FIFF in Namur

We’re also a partner of the Festival International du Film Francophone, the go-to event for the French-speaking film industry. Every year, the FIFF screens over 140 animated, drama, and documentary films, including feature and shorts. The programme also includes workshops and events with special guests. 

Bozar

Like us, Bozar aims to make culture accessible to as many people as possible. That’s why we regularly invite our customers to the many events taking place at this internationally renowned arts centre in Brussels, where the young and young at heart can enjoy exhibitions, festivals, concerts, films and talks.

De Munt/La Monnaie

For 40 years, we’ve shared our passion for opera, classical music and modern dance through our partnership with La Monnaie/De Munt. With our support, the theatre is able to offer discounted tickets and other advantages to under-30s through the Young Opera program. We also back initiatives that promote young talent, such as the MM Academy.

Queen Elisabeth Competition

This world-renowned classical music competition celebrates violinists, pianists, singers and cellists. Through this partnership, we strive to make classical music accessible to everyone, including young audiences. We also support the Competition’s laureates by providing opportunities to perform and gain stage experience. 

Flagey

Flagey is a cultural hotspot that unites key contributors of the Brussels cultural landscape. The result is a rich blend of music and culture under one beautiful roof. By supporting projects such as Flagency, Flagey Academy and Flagey's Entre Chien et Loup, we are supporting the artistic growth of talented young creatives.

Flagency

Through this ambitious program, Flagey and BNP Paribas Fortis support young musicians as they launch or advance their careers. By combining artistic and financial support, Flagency aims to become a leading talent development program in Belgium and beyond.
