The energy was palpable at Google’s London headquarters on Thursday 12 February, as Table Tennis International Events officially unveiled two landmark corporate programmes for the ITTF World Team Table Tennis Championships Finals London 2026.
As the championships return to their birthplace a century after the inaugural 1926 event, these initiatives offer businesses a unique opportunity to be part of sporting history while creating a lasting social legacy across the capital.
Two Ways Your Organisation Can Get Involved
The 2026 Championships are about more than elite competition; they aim to bring table tennis into the heart of London’s business districts and local communities.
The Centenary Table Programme
To commemorate the 100-year anniversary, a limited number of special edition Centenary Tables will be installed at high-profile, iconic London landmarks.
These tables will serve as focal points for the sport during the Championships. Afterward, they will continue their journey by being kept by the community or donated to social impact projects through the Ping! programme, ensuring the sport thrives in schools, clubs and health venues for years to come.
Corporate Cup Competition: Share the Stage with Legends
Is your office home to the next table tennis champion? The Corporate Competition is an employee engagement initiative designed to spark friendly rivalry and team spirit within the workplace. With major organisations like Google, WeWork, Monzo and Deliveroo already signed up, businesses are urged to join the competition.
Delivered in partnership with the Ping Pong Society, the competition features:
- Format: Teams of three players competing in home and away fixtures against other competing organisations during a round-robin group stage starting in March.
- The Prize: Finalists will battle for victory at the OVO Arena Wembley in May, sharing the stage with the World Championships.
