A metric space $U$ has the universal Lipschitz extension property if
for an arbitrary metric space $M$ and every subspace $S$ of $M$
isometric to a subspace of $U$ there exists a continuous linear
extension of Banach-valued Lipschitz functions on $S$ to those on
all of $M$. We show that the finite direct sum of Gromov hyperbolic
spaces of bounded geometry is universal in the sense of this
definition.
