HCL Nordics

Technology has transformed our world and reshaped the way we live our lives. However, one of the biggest implications has come in the form of its impact on health, especially for children who are becoming less active and choosing to spend less time offline with their friends.

We at HCL believe that sports is a great way to address this important issue. Whether it is through the Manchester United Soccer Schools or engaging an entire ecosystem of fans, participants, volunteers, and partners through Cricket Australia, we have always believed that sports has a unique way of breaking down barriers and connecting people together. To continue this, we are proud to announce our latest partnership in Sweden, supporting Team Göta Traneberg youth ice hockey. Through this partnership our aim is to support a healthy and vibrant future for the local youth by connecting them with a sport that brings them joy while teaching valuable life skills of team building, responsibility, and leadership.

Ice hockey, a sport in which Sweden has excelled for many years, is attracting a growing number of female players. However, there are relatively few girls and women ice hockey clubs and competitions. Göta Traneberg, together with Ekerö IK and Hässelby/Källvesta, are creating a team—Team Västerort—to participate in the first girls junior hockey league in Stockholm. Supporting this partnership also builds on our commitment to help build a gender-balanced society across industries. This is further supported by HCL’s Women Lead initiative that we have launched in the Nordics to help aspiring women succeed in the corporate world.

As we remain committed to harnessing the power of sports to help our children reach their greatest potential and build an equal playing field for all, we welcome you to join us as our colleagues, partners, and customers in cheering for the team’s success.
