We’re making big plays in Miami to celebrate our transition from NEXT Insurance to ERGO NEXT Insurance.

Today, we announced our partnership with championship Major League Soccer (MLS) team Inter Miami CF as Official Insurance and Training Apparel Partner.

That means you’ll see the ERGO NEXT logo during team practices and most pre-game warmups throughout the 2026 Major League Soccer season.

This partnership builds on ERGO Group’s global legacy in soccer and underscores our shared commitment to innovation, performance and growth. We’re strengthening our brand presence while continuing to serve small businesses with the same digital-first experience they know and trust.

Partnering with one of MLS’s most innovative and recognized teams is a powerful signal of our long-term investment and our ambition to help entrepreneurs thrive wherever they do business.

“This partnership with Inter Miami CF aligns perfectly with our ambitious growth objectives,” says Guy Goldstein, ERGO NEXT CEO. “Football has proven to be a powerful platform for building brands, fostering long-term relationships and driving sustainable business growth. MLS offers an exceptional platform with global relevance, making it the ideal environment to strengthen our visibility with customers, partners and the wider public.”

The partnership arrives at an exciting time for Inter Miami. The team won its first MLS championship in December under the leadership of soccer superstar Lionel Messi and co-owner and former player David Beckham.

The momentum continues this season as the team unveils its new stadium in Miami, which will include the ERGO NEXT lounge.
