The innovative vehicle manufacturer will join the Victory family as a Major Partner and Exclusive Motor Vehicle Supplier in a 12-month deal.<\/p>\n
\u00a0<\/p>\n
Elite performance, accessible for all<\/p>\n
The alliance between Melbourne Victory<\/a> and BYD<\/a> reflects both parties\u2019 commitment to progress, efficiency and high performance.\u00a0It brings together two organisations who share vision and values, two fundamental aspects of any successful partnership.<\/p>\n On one hand is a rapidly growing and community-connected manufacturing company with over 100 sites, intent on providing reliable vehicles to Australian families. On the other, a successful club in the heart of Melbourne, with ambitions to progress on the pitch while regularly engaging with the community.<\/p>\n Melbourne Victory Managing Director, Caroline Carnegie, commented on the strong foundations of the partnership with BYD.<\/p>\n \u201cFounded only a decade apart, there is a shared history of, and ambition for, continued accelerated growth between Melbourne Victory and BYD.\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cNot only is there a clear alignment of our vision and values to lead, unite, connect and inspire, but a mutual commitment to creating a better future for our communities.\u201d<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n Delivering for the community<\/p>\n As part of the partnership, BYD\u2019s branding will feature on Victory\u2019s home and away jerseys, as well as across the Academy, media and Community assets.<\/p>\n Moreover, the agreement comes as a response from Victory to members and fans\u2019 wishes for not just any vehicle partner, but one which is appropriate and coherent to their day-to-day lives. And as BYD Australia Chief Operating Officer, Stephen Collins, explained, the new energy vehicle manufacturer is driving far more than just passengers.<\/p>\n \u201cWe are thrilled to join forces with Melbourne Victory, a club that shares our relentless drive for performance and innovation,\u201d expressed Collins.<\/p>\n \u201cAs the exclusive vehicle supplier, we\u2019re not just providing new energy mobility; we\u2019re supporting the team\u2019s journey towards a more sustainable future.\u201d<\/p>\n New energy, new partner and new ambitions for Melbourne Victory, who will compete on the international stage next season in the AFC Champions League Two.<\/p>\n And with a partner like BYD to back them, players and fans in the Victory family will be hoping it is the start of a journey to success.<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"TY Lim \/ Shutterstock.com The innovative vehicle manufacturer will join the Victory family as a Major Partner and…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":31339,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[4],"tags":[14223,260,332,28967],"class_list":["post-31338","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-melbourne","tag-caroline-carnegie","tag-melbourne","tag-melbourne-victory","tag-stephen-collins"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/australia\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/31338","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/australia\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/australia\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/australia\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/australia\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=31338"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/australia\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/31338\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/australia\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/31339"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/australia\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=31338"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/australia\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=31338"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/australia\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=31338"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
