This September, Singapore hosts the Toyota World Para Swimming Championships, and Toyota Motor Asia is stepping up as headline partner for Asia’s first edition of the meet.
More than 600 elite para swimmers will line up at the OCBC Aquatic Centre from 21–27 September 2025.
“At Toyota, we believe movement is a human right, and sport is one of the most powerful ways to express that. Para-athletes are powerful spokespeople of resilience, ambition and progress. Our involvement is not just about sponsorship, but a demonstration of our support to their journeys, and helping to shift perceptions around ability, access, hope and possibilities.”
Preston Tan, Vice President, Toyota Motor Asia
In 2025, Singapore welcomes both the World Aquatics Championships and the World Para Swimming Championships, signalling the city-state’s emergence as a regional hub for aquatic sport. For Toyota, the partnership is a continuity of work already in motion with local stakeholders to widen access and deepen understanding.
In June, Toyota and the Singapore Disability Sports Council (SDSC) marked the 100-day countdown with a Memorandum of Understanding. The activation continues this month with the Singapore National Paralympic Council at the Paralympic Fiesta in Punggol Waterway Point (25–31 August), an engagement expected to draw over 10,000 participants while raising funds for athletes prepping for major Games.
Toyota will deploy a fleet of 18 vehicles to shuttle race officials and the local organising committee, while TMA volunteers take on poolside duties and even serve as country contingent leads during the Opening and Closing Ceremonies.
Around the event, Toyota-led volunteer drives, community activations and employee engagement keep the momentum up during the championship.
Strip away the banners and you arrive at the core idea: movement should be accessible. Partnerships like this help break barriers, build understanding and bring people together in the most direct way sport knows how.
