Corporate teams unite for football excellence
The Axentec Presents FICCI (Foreign Investors’ Chamber of Commerce & Industry) Football Tournament 2026 is set to begin on April 24 in Dhaka, bringing together multinational companies in a vibrant display of corporate sportsmanship and collaboration.

Following its successful debut last year, the 2026 edition will feature 20 multinational organisations competing across 50 matches over 16 match days, concluding on May 15. Matches will be held at Nutmeg Field on Madani Avenue, with a format comprising group stages followed by knockout rounds, including both Cup and Plate segments.
The tournament journey officially began with a Captain and Managers’ Meet at the FICCI Secretariat in Gulshan, where team representatives attended the group draw and received briefings on tournament rules and structure.
Prominent corporate figures, including T.I.M. Nurul Kabir of FICCI and Mahbub Alam of Nutmeg, were present alongside representatives from leading companies such as Robi Axiata and Coca-Cola Bangladesh Ltd..
The competition builds on last year’s success, where Foodpanda secured the Cup title and DHL finished as runners-up.
Supported by sponsors including Axentec and Singer-Beko, the matches will be streamed live on digital platforms, offering audiences nationwide access to the tournament.
