Toyo Tires is a New Premium Sponsor of AC Milan
Japanese tyre manufacturer Toyo Tires and Rubber has agreed to become a premium sponsor of Italian Serie A football club AC Milan.
The deal will begin immediately and run through the 2015-16 season.
Toyo Tires becomes the first Japanese company to join Milan’s commercial portfolio at the premium level. Fellow Japanese firm, IT equipment and services company Fujitsu, agreed a three-year deal to become an official partner in February. The two deals come after Japanese international forward Keisuke Honda joined Milan from Russian Premier League club CSKA Moscow in the January transfer window.
Gandhi, Kejriwal, Modi in war of words.
Here is the word cloud of these three leaders, about what they are saying in their speeches and public meeting.
Sean Parker Launches Civic Startup To Disrupt American Political Engagement
Remember Justin Timberlake's character from The Social Network? He
was Sean Parker, who in real life co-founded Napster, the computer
program that illuminated to teenagers around the world that pirating the
latest Metallica and Limp Bizkit tracks was possible outside of a tape
deck. After his success with that venture and also as an investor of
Facebook, Parker is pouring millions into a civic startup hoping to make
America a more Democratic place.
Called Brigade Media LLC, the platform will look to tackle voter efficacy and turnout during elections at all levels in America, according to Politico. Though it's not said how exactly Brigade plans to do that, an SEC document filed Monday shows that Parker – who will act as chief executive and chairman of the company – and a few big-name associates, like Facebook's first Washington Evangelist Adam Conner and former LinkedIn SVP David Henke, believe enough in it to put $9.3 million dollars into the young startup.
