Hologic has been named in the 2023 Sport for Good Index which honors companies leveraging athletics to make a positive social impact. When compiling its index, Laureus looks for corporate commitment to the United Nation’s 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). These goals inform many of Hologic's Corporate Social Responsibility decisions.
Through Hologic’s partnership with the Women’s Tennis Association, more women are learning about the importance of screenings, early detection and prioritizing their health. This partnership has led to the creation of the Women’s Health Task Force, which supports the same priorities for women athletes.

It's inspirational to see both the new brands listed and those brands continuing to place sport for good at the heart of their campaigns in innovative ways.
Hologic is honored to be named among such other organizations as Toyota, AT&T, Lego, DHL, Patagonia, Visa and Vodafone, which have all found a way to create positive change through athletics.
“We launched the Index to move the conversation forward around the role sport can play in wider society, and it's inspirational to see both the new brands listed and those brands continuing to place sport for good at the heart of their campaigns in innovative ways. This year’s Index is another opportunity for us to celebrate best practice of global brands who place sport for good at the heart of their purpose-driven platforms,” said Sean Fitzpatrick, Chairman of Laureus Sport for Good.
Hologic became the title sponsor of the WTA in March of 2022 and the partnership continues to be a powerful tool for spreading the message of screening and preventive care to champion women’s health.
