MINNEAPOLIS, MN – MARCH 11, 2021 – VNN, America’s largest high school sports communication platform, announced today a nationwide partnership with HomeLight, the real estate technology platform powering homebuyers, sellers, and the top real estate agents in the United States.
The partnership is the first collaboration of its kind between the sports communication platform and real estate technology platform joining forces to connect and strengthen nearly 500 high school athletic departments and local communities nationwide. HomeLight, whose technology empowers people to make smarter decisions during one of life’s most important moments of buying or selling their home, and VNN, whose software makes promoting high school athletic programs easy, will coordinate together on hyper-local digital marketing campaigns in 500 local markets across 32 states.
“We
are always looking for partners that share our mission to connect communities,
whether that’s bringing people together for a Friday night football game or
creating a world where every real estate transaction is simple, certain, and
satisfying for all. As two technology platforms dedicated to serving local
communities across the country, we’re excited to partner with HomeLight to
continue sharing that mission,” said Romy Glazer, Chief Marketing Officer at
VNN.
Beyond the partnership, VNN and HomeLight have both created programs to celebrate and empower sports teams and communities locally. The VNN National Championship celebrates schools with the most passionate fan bases across the United States. HomeLight has partnered with U.S. Ski & Snowboard, the National Governing Body (NGB) of Olympic ski and snowboard sports in the USA, on the HomeLight Killington Cup — the only domestic stop on the World Cup tour for the women of the U.S. Ski Team.
“At HomeLight, we work every day to be the best team we can — and everything we do is focused on powering the best people and teams in real estate.” said John Van Slyke III, Vice President of Marketing at HomeLight. “We believe it’s paramount to deepen the sense of community for our agents, our clients, and their families in the neighborhoods and towns they call home. We’re excited to partner with VNN to support high school athletes and teams across the country and strengthen teamwork and community in the cities and towns they call home.”
