Ayrton Senna holding a Sonic the Hedgehog-shaped trophy after winning the Formula One 1993 European Grand Prix. Sega sponsored the whole event in addition to sponsoring the (winning) Williams team that season.

Over the years, Sega has sponsored many events and services in order to further market its brand or products. Typically, companies such as Sega would invest money in a sponsee, allowing them to fund their activities, in exchange for a prominent display of the brand or products Sega were trying to advertise.

The following lists instances where this has occurred. Not included are cases where Sega has helped established a venture (such as GameWorks or SegaWorld London), only to withdraw their name later on.
