World Wide Technology Championship at Mayakoba

WWT Championship at Mayakoba

WWT is excited to partner with the PGA TOUR as title sponsor for the World Wide Technology Championship at Mayakoba through 2027. 

Hosted Nov. 1-7 at El Camaleón Golf Club at Mayakoba on Mexico's Riviera Maya, the tournament will attract some of golf's biggest stars and celebrate technology, diversity and the power of digital transformation.

Master your approach to make a new world happen.

A golfer's approach shot is often the most critical factor in securing positive outcomes. Technology is no different. A sophisticated, innovative approach to IT that bridges the gap between business and technology drives transformational outcomes and allows you to make a new world happen.

Our culture and core values — on display to the world.

Our ability to create a brighter future for all by making a positive impact on our people, communities and customers is directly related to our culture and core values. The World Wide Technology Championship at Mayakoba is committed to supporting local, national and international charities, and to date has donated nearly $3 million to organizations making a difference in the Playa del Carmen and Cancun communities. 

Leading with diversity, equity and inclusion

WWT is privileged to be the title sponsor of the Advocates Pro Golf Association (APGA) Player Development Program. Established in 2010, the APGA Tour is a non-profit organization with the mission to prepare Black and other minority golfers to compete and win at the highest level of professional golf across the International Federation of PGA Tours.

An experience unlike any other

World-class golf and hospitality will be on full display all week, but what really gets us excited about this tournament is what it represents.  

Guests will be offered a variety of opportunities to attend compelling engagements that stimulate conversation in thought leadership and industry trends, experience WWT's award winning inclusive culture, and exchange insights with WWT leadership and our valued partner community.
