partnership with the International Paralympic Committee (IPC) and the
German National Paralympic Committee (Deutscher
Behindertensportverband, DBS) in 2006, the company committed itself to
supporting Paralympic Athletes preparing for the Paralympic Games and
to promote the Paralympic Movement, its goals and ideals. In 2011,
Allianz became the first "International Partner" of the IPC and is
a "National Supporter" of ten National Paralympic Committees (NPCs) on
a local level. In 2013, Allianz extended and expanded its contract with
the IPC until 2016. Most importantly, the global insurer has managed to
provide a meaningful link between the Paralympics engagement and the
concerns of the company's employees and clients. "There is a strong
link that ties Allianz to the Paralympics," continues Werner
Zedelius. "The topics of health, rehabilitation and reintegration after
a casualty are part of our daily business and we understand that
disability is an issue that concerns all of us." Through this strong
partnership, Allianz has gained insights into the achievements, the
goals, and the spirit of the Paralympic Movement: the athletes' passion
for the sport, the ambitions to achieve their goals and the ability to
believe in themselves are remarkable. Their motivation to strive for
excellence in Paralympic sports can serve as inspiration for all
people, everywhere, regardless of physical impairment.
