World Cup is presented by Vonage.
Vonage presents World Cup.
Are they OK?
What does it mean " present"?
Thank YOu |

Either one is OK if you put "the" in front of "World Cup."
In this context, "presented by" means "sponsored by." Vonage paid for the broadcast of the World Cup match.

Addendum:
You will often hear / see it worded this way:
"Brought to you by [sponsor]."
