Schneider Electric, leader in the digital transformation of energy management and industrial automation, returns as title sponsor of the Marathon de Paris. Scheduled for April 13, the event will bring together over 55,000 participants from around the world, including more than 6,000 customers, partners, and employees of Schneider Electric. Runners will follow a 26.2-mile (42.195-km) route along the capital’s most prominent avenues.
For the third consecutive year, it will include the Paris Run for All. This 2.5-mile (4km) charity race happens the day before the official marathon, allowing people of all levels and abilities to participate. Proceeds go to the ANAÉ association, which invests in specially adapted equipment like all-terrain wheelchairs and quadracycles.
Recognized by Time magazine and Statista as the world’s most sustainable company in 2024, Schneider Electric is making steady progress to reduce the marathon’s environmental footprint. The event has halved its waste compared to 2017, and since 2019 has offset all residual greenhouse gas emissions linked to its organization.
