FIFA and Globant Expand Partnership to Deliver Digital Services

FIFA and Globant have signed an expanded partnership, which will see the digitally native company deliver a portfolio of IT solutions, software and digital platform development services across FIFA’s ecosystem.

After beginning their collaboration four years ago, the expanded agreement will include enhancements to FIFA’s digital platforms and a new mobile app that will help power multiple FIFA tournaments, starting with the FIFA World Cup 2026 in Canada, Mexico and the United States.

Under the terms of the agreement, Globant will be a Tournament Supporter in North America and Europe for the FIFA World Cup 2026 and the FIFA Women’s World Cup 2027. Globant will also support other major FIFA competitions, including December’s FIFAe Finals 2025 in Saudi Arabia, and the next FIFA U-20 World Cup in Azerbaijan and Uzbekistan in 2027.

“We are thrilled to deepen our collaboration with FIFA and jointly embark on this new phase of innovation for football,” said Martin Migoya, co-founder and CEO of Globant. “Technology can amplify the power of sport – enabling deeper connections, richer experiences and more personalized journeys for fans around the world.”

“This new agreement between FIFA and Globant reflects each organization’s vision to reimagine how football is experienced in the digital era, while preserving the emotion, community and global reach that bring the game to every corner of the world,” said FIFA Secretary General Mattias Grafström. “We look forward to continuing our cooperation with Globant as we build digital services that make our tournaments even more engaging and enjoyable for fans.”

The FIFA World Cup 2026 and FIFA Women’s World Cup 2027 will both be milestone events in 2026 and 2027. The Men’s World Cup will be the first to feature 48 national teams and the first to be hosted across three nations, while the Women’s World Cup will be hosted in Brazil, the first time that the tournament will take place in South America.

Ahead of both tournaments, FIFA and Globant say that they are seeking to make football more interactive and inclusive for fans around the world.
