Committed to the development of women's sports in Brazil, Neoenergia celebrates the invitation of the third sponsored athlete for the Olympic Games. The player Antonia Silva, ambassador for the Neoenergia Team, secured a spot this Tuesday (2/7) as a full-back of the Brazilian Women's National Team that will go to Paris 2024. She joins other athletes supported by the company and already qualified for the Games: Ana Marcela, Olympic open water champion; and Ana Vitória Magalhães, Tota, Brazilian time trial champion.

“It's the fulfillment of a dream. Wearing the yellow-green shirt once again fills me with pride. I want to inspire girls and women, especially Northeastern women, on and off the grass, to go in search of their achievements. Sponsorship is being very important to broaden this message and make it reach even more girls and women ,” says Antonia Silva, who was also the champion of the 2022 Copa América with the Brazilian National Team, and took the field at the 2023 Women's World Cup in Australia and New Zealand.

“Neoenergia is committed to strengthening women's sports in Brazil. The Neoenergia Team, launched at the beginning of last year, reinforces that we play an important role in valuing women both in sports and in society as a whole. The ambassadors' ranking shows that we are making a difference and helping to take Brazilian athletes even further. It's another historic brand, just as we play a leading role in women's soccer in the country, through pioneering support for the Brazilian Women's National Team and the Neoenergia Women's Brasileirão ,” says Lorenzo Perales, Marketing Director
