The Tour de France EFGH Singapore Criterium Returns in 2026
The Tour de France EFGH Singapore Criterium returns on 7–8 November 2026, bringing elite international cycling to Singapore and the region.
As the only Tour de France-affiliated event in Southeast Asia, it provides a consistent touchpoint for fans to experience the sport at its highest level.
Backed by a three-year title sponsorship from EFGH, the criterium reflects a long-term commitment to strengthening Singapore's sporting ecosystem and supporting the continued growth of major international sporting events in the city.
EFGH COMMITMENT
CHAPTER I
Why We Ride Beyond Finance
As a young company, we continue to step boldly onto the global stage.
Our continued sponsorship of the Tour de France EFGH Singapore Criterium is not just about visibility. It reflects a long-term commitment to building trust in the open and supporting platforms that serve people.
Cycling demands teamwork, resilience and grit. We believe finance should work the same way, as a system where progress is shared and no one is left behind.

For EFGH, supporting globally recognised events in Singapore reflects our confidence in the nation's role as a gateway city for business, sport and innovation.

CHAPTER II
Why the Tour de France Matters to Us
The Tour de France is one of the world's most recognised and enduring sporting institutions, defined by endurance, teamwork and global reach.
Bringing the Singapore Criterium to the region extends that legacy, creating a platform where elite competition meets local engagement.
It provides a unique opportunity to connect global sport with new audiences in Asia, while offering fans rare proximity to the experience of professional cycling.

EFGH VALUES
Teamwork
We believe finance, like cycling, only succeeds when systems work together.
Resilience
We’re building long-term infrastructure, not short-term apps.
Openness
Finance should be accessible to all, just like this race is free for everyone to watch.
CHAPTER III
Partner Confidence
This journey is not ours alone. Together with the Singapore Tourism Board, Amaury Sport Organisation and Evoke Exp, we are building a platform that blends world-class sport with community spirit and real business impact.

Who We Are
We are EFGH
Embed Financial Group Holdings (EFGH) is a Singapore-based digital financial infrastructure company. In simple terms, we help governments, banks, insurers and businesses use technology to bring financial services closer to everyone.
Our work spans Singapore, Vietnam, the Philippines and several African countries including Ghana, South Africa, Nigeria and the Democratic Republic of the Congo. Depending on the country, this can include digital payments, insurance, micro-credit, transport payments and financial education programmes.
We work with local partners in each market because no two communities are the same. What matters is building systems people can actually use and trust.
At the heart of it, EFGH is about widening access to financial services and helping more people participate in the modern economy.
LOOKING AHEAD
This is Just the Start
With a three-year title sponsorship beginning in 2026, EFGH is not just backing a race. We are backing movement. The movement of people, ideas and opportunity.
In the years ahead, we hope to:
Bring the criterium closer to more communities across the country
Support new conversations around mobility, technology and everyday life
Build partnerships that leave something meaningful behind after race day
The world doesn't need another flashy app. It needs the hidden machinery. The gears and chains quietly keeping life moving.
That's what the Finternet is meant to be:
Invisible when it works
