[Sint-Truiden] Regarding the Sponsorship Agreement with Interior Inc.

Sint-Truiden VV (hereinafter, STVV) is pleased to announce that it has concluded a corporate sponsorship agreement with Interior Inc. (Headquarters: Shinagawa-ku, Tokyo) for the 2025-2026 season.

The corporate sponsorship agreement was reached because Interior Inc. resonated with STVV's vision of bridging Japan and Belgium, not only in sports but also in supporting Japanese players, coaches, and business staff in their challenges to Europe and the world.

[Comment from Interior Inc.] "We deeply empathize with STVV's vision of 'a gateway for young talent from Japan to the world,' and have thus concluded a corporate sponsorship agreement. Our company name, 'Interior,' is derived from the soccer position 'interior (inside half).' The role of connecting offense and defense, meticulously assessing the battle situation, and creating decisive chances is precisely the ideal image of the consulting we provide to our clients through recruitment, M&A, and sales support. Like an interior who moves the team as the heart of the field, we also want to be a partner that maximizes the potential of STVV and all those who continue to challenge themselves. We will work together to create energy that shakes the world from Belgium and strive for further leaps forward."
