Furthermore, among this year’s brand-new events there will be the presentation to the press of the Women’s First Team that will take place at the headquarters of Banco BPM.
This partnership extension is also an important element of continuity able to offer customers and Rossoneri fans many benefits and exclusive opportunities to experience their favourite team as protagonists.
AC Milan CEO, Ivan Gazidis commented: "AC Milan and Banco BPM are two innovative realities that know very well how to step into the future, without forgetting the history and tradition that made them synonymous with excellence in Italy and all over the world. Reliability and sense of belonging are values that have allowed the Club and Banco BPM to build a privileged relationship with their fans and customers over the years. Therefore, we are very happy with this renewal because it further strengthens the shared desire to achieve together new and important goals."
Giuseppe Castagna, CEO of Banco BPM, said: "The partnership that binds us to AC Milan and that we are renewing today, fosters a major relationship with a legendary and successful reality, born and raised in our same territory: a prestigious brand, a driving force of the world of sports. We are proud to share with AC Milan those sports values such as team spirit, passion, commitment and above all that special attention to young people, for whom sport is synonymous with education, training and social responsibility and integration."
