Joseph Schooling Joins Forces with DBS – A New Chapter for Singapore’s Swimmer
After becoming the brand ambassador for the high‑style German label Hugo Boss, Singapore’s Olympic gold medalist Joseph Schooling is back in the spotlight – this time with a mega‑deal from the nation’s banking giant, DBS.
The Three‑Year Partnership
- Schooling will champion a series of community events and social‑media campaigns aimed at inspiring Singapore’s youth.
- The focus? Helping the next generation break through their own hurdles and carve out success stories of their own.
- “I train hard every day to make Singapore proud,” Schooling says. “DBS embodies what it means to be a true Singaporean brand. It’s an honour to partner with them.”
- He lauds DBS for being “customer‑first, proud of its roots, ambitious, and relentlessly hardworking.”
From the Water to the Wall Street
When Schooling hangs up his swim cap, he’s set to graduate from the University of Texas with a degree in economics. The cover‑all swimmer is also eyeing a future in wealth management.
DBS will help kickstart this transition by:
- Offering internships that fit around his swimming schedule.
- Organising mentoring sessions to bridge the worlds of sport and finance.
After the NCAA championships on March 24, Schooling officially stepped into the professional arena, a move that’s permitted by the NCAA’s guidelines on amateurism.
Why It Matters
Schooling’s dual journey illustrates how you can master a sport and a career without confusing the two. It also demonstrates the power of local brands in cultivating national pride and creating career pathways for young talent.
