In the press conference held exceptionally for this purpose, Mr Makis Angelopoulos announced the deal with the industry giant photovoltaics.
This will concern her nomenclature of the closed Ano Liosia, will last 5+5 years and will include collaboration for development both of the stadium and the wider area.
Everything Makis Angelopoulos said in detail
“To inform you of the agreement with the Sunel group for the naming rights for the next five years and with an option for another five. We’ve added another link to the pitch.
There are still 2-3 important pieces left, with projects we will do on the field, as well as the big investment off the field.
We have been running the process for the last 13 months. We ended up with 5 interested parties, 3 made it to the final stage and we were very happy to agree with Sunel.
We share a common vision with the business and decided to walk together and do things together. 4 years ago we received a baby.
We found ourselves in the dilemma of whether to proceed with investments. We made the decision to go ahead despite the coronavirus, we really spit blood. We are proud and the world should be too. The stadium was saved, licensed for the first time by AEK and is being developed.
We are really proud, no help from anyone, all with resources of our team. We are happy to have found good partners and will continue together.”
For his part, the CEO of the company Sunel, Konstantinos Zygourasstated:
“It is our honor and pleasure to have the AEK stadium named after us and as a springboard for it to see titles and remain at the top of basketball. The important thing is that we didn’t come to give the stadium a name, but a soul. The stadium should become a multipurpose space for fun and entertainment. A family space, with comfort and safety to have special experiences. To learn things and bond with each other.
You will definitely see the stadium upgraded. New jobs will be created and of course the whole area will be upgraded. The goal is to become the first green Olympic facility that will have a zero carbon footprint. A plan that we will achieve in many ways, renewable energy that can be used elsewhere.
With the same passion of this union, we sign this historic agreement, which will bring all Greeks here to admire history. As Nikos Papanikolos said in “epos 1968″, we won because we played well, because we believed, because we couldn’t lose. I will say we will succeed because we believe in it and we have a vision.”
When asked about the cooperation plan, he said: “There is a five-year agreement, and two extensions every 5 years. So we have time to develop our partnership and bring the stadium to its best condition. For the activities in the area, we are together with Mr. Angelopoulos to make the vision a reality. We have a long, plan a strategy”.
In closing, Mr. Zygouras said:
“We consider the five years of the agreement only the beginning of our agreement with AEK. We are working on the details of the individual actions and soon you will have news of the actions we intend to do. Our company has a presence in many foreign countries and with our involvement in green energy, we strongly believe in this model. That’s the only way we can move forward.”
