This partnership also includes the Men's and Women's Olympic Qualifying Tournaments, FIBA Continental Cups for both Men and Women, FIBA Youth World Cups and also the FIBA Women's Basketball World Cup in 2022.

FIBA Secretary General Andreas Zagklis said, "We are pleased to have Ganten as a Global Partner and have them on board for a further four years. Their involvement in the FIBA Basketball World Cup 2019 was very positive, with China-wide integrated marketing and media campaigns occurring throughout the year. They also provided Ganten water across all eight World Cup venues and cities over the past 16 days. I look forward to expanding our partnership with them within our other key events over the next four years."
