In March 2025, Kylian Mbappe marked a significant business venture by investing in the France SailGP team through his firm, Coalition Capital. This move aligns with his commitment to French sports and social impact. In an interview, Mbappe expressed his passion for supporting compatriots and emphasized the importance of SailGP's initiatives benefitting children. His partnership allows young participants from his foundation to gain firsthand experiences in competitive sailing, reinforcing lessons of hard work and mental preparation for future endeavors, thus aiming to inspire a new generation.
Well, the first thing is that as a French person, I've always wanted to support my compatriots. I've always wanted to support French sport, so that was already a first factor.
The second is because SailGP does a lot of things socially for children. And to have been able to involve my foundation with SailGP is really something that fills me with joy because we share a lot of values and we have a lot of projects planned together for the future.
I want them to have the freedom to create their own experience, their own memories, because they are the ones who will live it, he said. They'll also learn the meaning of sacrifice, the meaning of hard work, because they'll see how much work it takes to get a result.
