Perficient,
Inc. (NASDAQ: PRFT) (“Perficient”), the leading digital
transformation consulting firm serving Global 2000® and other large
enterprise customers throughout North America, today announced it has
entered into a multi-year partnership with the St.
Louis Cardinals.
Under terms of the agreement, Perficient will receive a variety of
marketing and corporate engagement benefits.
“We’re thrilled to enter into this relationship with the most storied
franchise in St. Louis sports and with an organization that truly shares
our appreciation of, affinity for, and commitment to the St. Louis
region,” said Bill Davis, Perficient’s managing director of marketing
and communications. “We expect this partnership to be mutually
beneficial as two true St. Louis success stories team to support one
another.”
Central to the agreement is the buildout of the “Perficient Perch,” an
area above the third base line of Busch
Stadium that provides impressive views of the St. Louis skyline,
playing field, and the Cardinals’ new multi-million dollar,
state-of-the-art, high definition LED video boards, all of which have
been upgraded in advance of the 2016 season.
“It’s exciting to add a fast-growing, successful and dynamic St. Louis
corporation like Perficient to our partner family,” said Dan Farrell,
Cardinals senior vice president of sales and marketing. “Each year, the
Cardinals organization invests significant time, energy and financial
resources to continue to improve our in-stadium customer experience. The
Perficient Perch will grow to represent a new, exciting area of our
stadium, and we couldn’t be more pleased to partner with a firm like
Perficient to make that a reality.”
In addition to the signage associated with the themed Perch area,
Perficient will receive radio exposure on the Cardinals’ flagship radio
station, KMOX,
as well as across the entire Cardinals Radio Network, which constitutes
more than 140 stations across nine states. Corporate hospitality and
in-game exposure are included.
In recent years, both organizations have been among the most successful
in their respective industries. Since 2000, the Cardinals have reached
the postseason in 12 of 15 seasons and appeared in the World Series four
times, winning twice. Perficient has scaled from a startup to a global
consulting leader with more than 2,800 employees and projecting more
than $500 million in revenue in 2016.
