The Golden State Warriors agreed a multiyear sponsorship deal with IREN Limited, an AI technology company, in June 2026. Starting in the 2026-27 season, IREN's logo will appear on Warriors game jerseys. The agreement is worth more than 50 million dollars per year, making it the largest sponsorship deal in North American sports history.
IREN, an Australian company that builds data centres using renewable energy, will also have its branding on clothing and venues connected to the Warriors' other teams, including the Golden State Valkyries and the Santa Cruz Warriors.
The partnership includes several community programmes. These cover AI and science education, repairs to local basketball courts, and the yearly donation of 10,000 Warriors jerseys to young people from lower-income communities.
