PROJECT'S PLAYERS / FINANCING
The Matmut Atlantique, a 42,115 seat multifunction sporting facility, inscribes itself as a structuring element for Bordeaux and all of Aquitaine. With each phase that ties it to the City of Bordeaux, the Group, fully implicated, has committed to the project’s complete success: design, financing, construction, management and maintenance, complying with all of the specifications and the timetable.
To insure this present and future success, the Group has partnered with professional services recognized for their respective expertise in their fields (financing, architecture, technical, security, project management).
NAMER
In September 2015, the Matmut Group and SBA signed a ten year naming contract. Henceforth, the new sports arena will be called the Matmut Atlantique. Naming is a sponsoring practice which consists in giving a sports arena the name of a brand or sponsoring company in exchange for a fee. The latter has notably enabled the city and the community to save several million euros on the project’s total cost. Daniel Havis, President of Matmut, declared while formalizing the decision:
“The Matmut Group firmly believes in projects which contribute to bettering the quality of life of the territory in which they are developing. Undeniably, Matmut Atlantique, an arena of magnificent architecture, promotes exchanges, conviviality and proximity around a playing field, and we are delighted to contribute to its success and attractiveness. This commitment continues our investment in the region which is to be realized most particularly by the coming fusion with the Ociane union, well known by the inhabitants of Bordeaux but also by those of the entire region. Another example of our implication is our strong support of the Bordeaux Bègles Union whose results delight us.”
Daniel Havis, President Matmut
