If TekSavvy can do it, others can too.
That’s the mindset of Chatham-Kent Mayor Darrin Canniff following last year’s naming sponsorship of the Third and Fifth street bridges in Chatham by the local tech company.
According to a municipal media release, Canniff believes the recent initiative with TekSavvy has set a precedent for future collaborations with local businesses.
“By offering sponsorship opportunities, the municipality can provide businesses with the chance to increase their visibility and brand recognition in the community, while contributing to the improvement of public spaces and infrastructure,” the release stated.
TekSavvy COO said the company was proud to partner up with the municipality.
“TekSavvy is excited to partner with Chatham-Kent on the Third and Fifth street bridge projects,” Aube said in a media release. “Chatham-Kent is our headquarters and home to many of our employees and loyal customers. This opportunity to support the continued development of the municipality is very important and resonates very close to home for TekSavvy.”
Such partnerships are good for the municipality, Canniff said.
” These types of opportunities are highly beneficial to creating and maintaining vibrant public spaces, and we believe our sponsorship program will provide a win-win situation for both the businesses and the community,” he said.
The sponsorship opportunities will focus on various public spaces and infrastructure projects across the municipality, such as parks, community centers, and public buildings.
“We understand each business is unique, and we are committed to working with them to create a sponsorship package is tailored to their specific goals and objectives,” Canniff said. “We believe this initiative will provide businesses an excellent opportunity to demonstrate their commitment to our community and showcase their brand to a wider audience.”
