Clube de Regatas do Flamengo has just announced a new sponsorship agreement with inDrive, a global mobility and urban services platform based in Mountain View, California (USA). The agreement, which will extend to all categories, including youth, will benefit both the club's men's and women's soccer teams. 


As part of this collaboration, inDrive will become an official sponsor of Flamengo's soccer teams and will guarantee exclusivity in the mobility category. The inDrive brand will be prominently displayed on the Meninas da Gávea uniforms, on microphone panels during men's soccer press conferences, and in advertisements on FlaTV. 


"This is another strategic partnership for Flamengo, this time with a rapidly growing company within an important service market for the community. We believe the app will be widely adopted by the entire Red-Black Nation," said Flamengo's Vice President of Communications and Marketing, Gustavo Oliveira. 


"In inDrive's business model, passengers and drivers jointly set ride prices, ensuring a fair price for both parties. By partnering with Flamengo, a club committed to building a more just and inclusive society through its social initiatives, we reinforce our commitment to the development of the communities where we operate in Brazil," said Stefano Mazzaferro, Country Manager of inDrive in Brazil.  


In 2023, inDrive solidified its position among the three most downloaded transportation apps in Brazil. The company, which began operating in Brazil in 2018, has already expanded its mobility services offering to include deliveries, freight, and general services, and operates in more than 180 cities across the country.
