IT for an Active Generation - Champions and Challengers
To bring the Olympic and Paralympic Games experience closer to our clients and employees, Atos Origin has initiated a global program called “Champions & Challengers”. This program aims to build brand awareness, increase employee engagement, and provide a focus for a wide range of social responsibility activities.
Each Atos Origin country organization was encouraged to sponsor a local Olympic/Paralympic “Champion” on the road to Beijing 2008 and beyond. The chosen Olympian/Paralympian being someone who, for each country, matches with the values of Atos Origin such as team spirit, result-oriented, conviviality and entrepreneurship.
Our Champions bring home Gold!
The results have been amazing! Two Paralympic athletes won gold (Bian Jianxin and Li Duan), as did two Olympic athletes (Nicole Reinhardt and Tia Hellebaut), one won bronze (Teddy Riner) and many others achieved excellent results and personal bests. Atos Origin and its employees are proud of all our athletes and also of all our employees who have helped to raise so much money for good causes around the world.
See the full results on Competition Schedule & Results.
At the same time, Atos Origin is also challenging its own employees to actively engage in sporting activities as “Challengers” (whether hobby, amateur or (semi)professional) in order to raise money for a good cause.
Now read about the individual "Champions", their successes so far, and their hopes for the future.
