--Nets Sports and Entertainment Coordinates Agreement for Partnership-- |
EAST RUTHERFORD, NJ – Vonage, a leading provider of digital phone services, has become the first Legacy Partner of the IZOD CENTER at the Meadowlands Sports Complex. The multi-year agreement between Vonage and the New Jersey Sports & Exposition Authority (NJSEA) was coordinated by Nets Sports and Entertainment, which served as NJSEA’s representative for this alliance. |
Vonage’s investment will include dominant signage on the newly named Vonage Concourse, which will be tailored to the company’s specific communication goals. In addition, Vonage will integrate signage and displays throughout the IZOD CENTER, including on the rotating LED at the Box Office. Vonage branding will also be depicted on Routes 3 and 120 signage, adjacent to the IZOD CENTER. |
“We are extremely proud of our working relationship with Nets Sports and Entertainment,” said Dennis R. Robinson, president and CEO of the NJSEA. “The Legacy Partner alliance with Vonage shows again how well the IZOD CENTER works in the entertainment marketplace of North Jersey.” |
“Vonage is excited about the opportunity to play a larger role in bringing quality sports and entertainment to this premier New Jersey venue,” said Vonage Chief Marketing Officer Jamie Haenggi. “We’re also pleased to be working together with the NJSEA to help make our home state an even more interesting and attractive place to live and work.” |
“This alliance is a perfect fit for Vonage and the NJSEA and secures a powerful opportunity for Vonage to deliver a direct and positive message to the millions of visitors each year to the IZOD CENTER,” said Brett Yormark, president and CEO of Nets Sports and Entertainment. “The commitment of Vonage demonstrates the significant level of excitement in the marketplace about the IZOD CENTER and once again fortifies the viability of the venue.” |
