arena is proud to welcome Guilherme Caribé to its international team. He is one of the most promising talents in Brazilian swimming, having won silver medals in the 50m and 100m freestyle at the 2024 Short Course World Championships in Budapest, and gold medals in the 100m freestyle and 4x100m freestyle relay at the 2023 Pan American Games in Santiago.
“We are thrilled to welcome a talent like Guilherme to the arena team, thanks in part to the support of our Brazilian distributor BRW Group,” said Mark Pinger, Chief Brand Officer at arena. “His innate talent in short distance, combined with one of the best starts on the world stage, makes him one of the most exciting sprinters at an international level and allows us to continue our tradition of having world-class speedsters on our team.”
For Ana Paula Foroni, Brand Manager for the brand in Brazil, having an athlete like Guilherme Caribé is extremely important: “For us, it is essential to have Guilherme representing the new generation of Brazilian swimming. He embodies a dream that often seems distant for athletes, showing that with talent, dedication, and opportunity, it is possible to reach the highest level of world swimming. Guilherme is an example of courage, determination, and resilience, while also inspiring a new generation both in and out of the pool,” said the executive.
“Joining Arena’s international team is a tremendous honor. I am certain that this is a fundamental step that will help me continue evolving as an athlete and achieving even greater results in my career, bringing me closer to the level of the other athletes on this team whom I deeply admire. I am deeply grateful for the trust Arena has placed in me. Now, we move forward together toward LA 28.” said Guilherne Caribé Santos
