Official Partner to Team Ireland

Olympic champion Daniel Wiffen is Deloitte’s iconic new ambassador

 

 

Daniel Wiffen is an Olympic gold medallist, world record holder and world champion. Deloitte is the world’s #1 professional services firm.

What we share is not just that prized #1 status, though. It’s the hardwired challenger mindset that drives us forward. When you’re #1, your main competitor is yourself, and your goal is not to do it again, but to do it better. It’s about being brilliant at the basics and bold at the edges. It’s about using every available insight to keep improving, in small steps and giant leaps.

As worldwide and Team Ireland Official Olympic Partners through 2024, we’ve loved getting to know Daniel and growing to understand what makes him tick and what keeps him hungry. We’re exhilarated to be his Official Partner on the path to L.A. 2028 and beyond.

This partnership is about much more than a logo on a swim cap. Over the next four years we’ll work side by side with Daniel and his team to actively contribute to his success. For example, Daniel is famously obsessed with drilling deep into performance data to identify opportunities for incremental gains. Nobody is better placed to supercharge that work, than Deloitte.

At the same time, Daniel will help us: sharing his stories of curiosity, challenge and edge, inspiring us, and helping us to keep redefining what it is to be the world’s #1. Here’s to a winning partnership, above and below the surface.
