Foley vertegenwoordigt PeoplesBank in overeenkomst naamgevingsrechten Hartford Arena
Foley & Lardner LLP vertegenwoordigde PeoplesBank in verband met de meerjarige overeenkomst met Oak View Group en de Capital Region Development Authority om de 16.000 zitplaatsen tellende sport- en entertainmenttent in Hartford, Connecticut, om te dopen tot PeoplesBank Arena.
The newly renamed PeoplesBank Arena is home to the American Hockey League’s Hartford Wolf Pack, the AHL affiliate of the New York Rangers. It also hosts the 12-time National Champion UConn Women’s Basketball team, the six-time National Champion UConn Men’s Basketball team, the UConn Men’s Ice Hockey team, and a wide range of global concerts and entertainment events.
The naming rights agreement coincides with the next phase of the arena renovation project, which includes upgrades to the seating area, the addition of new lower-level luxury suites, and the development of enhanced concession areas. The 10-year partnership supports ongoing redevelopment efforts and reflects PeoplesBank’s continued investment in the Central Connecticut region.
The Foley deal team was led by Sports & Entertainment Group co-chair Kevin Schulz.
