Rugby

Rugby holds a special place in the history of Capgemini. 

Our founder, Serge Kampf, was not only a visionary in business but also a lifelong rugby enthusiast. He believed deeply in the values the sport embodies—teamwork, respect, discipline, and a passion for excellence. From the very beginning, rugby has been woven into the fabric of our company culture, shaping the way we work, lead, and innovate.

As the game continues to grow globally, attracting a diverse and passionate fan base, it mirrors our own commitment to inclusion and the power of diverse perspectives in driving innovation. That’s why our connection to rugby is not just historical—it’s a living, evolving partnership that continues to energize our people, and our purpose.

“Rugby is a team sport in which you can’t accomplish anything without the rest of your teammates”

Serge Kampf, founder of Capgemini

Our rugby journey

Rugby has been part of our story for decades. From the HSBC World Rugby Sevens Series and Rugby World Cup 2023 to the Women’s Rugby World Cup 2025, we’ve helped bring innovation, technology and new experiences to the game. Along the way, we’ve also partnered with rugby legend Jonny Wilkinson to champion the future of the sport. Today through our partnerships with Six Nations Rugby, England Rugby and Rugby India, we’re helping shape a more connected, inclusive and innovative future for the sport.
