“When we began the search for a partner for the LA Clippers and
our new dome, we looked for one that shares our passion for
technology, the pursuit of innovation and our commitment to
customers, fans and community,” said Steve Ballmer, LA Clippers
Chairman. “Intuit is a perfect fit and we’re excited to be calling
our future home the Intuit Dome.”
“Intuit and the Clippers are mission-driven organizations that
share the common goal of putting their customers and fans first. We
both have a focus on creating extraordinary experiences enabled by
innovative technology,” said Sasan Goodarzi, Intuit Chief Executive
Officer. “The Intuit Dome will reflect Intuit’s focus on innovation
to deliver best-in-class products and services including TurboTax,
QuickBooks, Mint and Credit Karma to help our customers achieve
their financial goals. Intuit and the Clippers have a history of
supporting local communities, and we look forward to investing in
and contributing to the Inglewood community to help them
prosper.”
Through this partnership, Intuit and the Clippers will create
new programs to reinvigorate the local economy and local businesses
that create jobs, enable job readiness, and educate entrepreneurs
to help them better run their businesses and transform their
financial lives.
As a function of the partnership, Intuit has committed to:
- Expand Intuit’s Prosperity Hub School District program, which
empowers the next generation of students to learn about finances
and entrepreneurship, in the LA area. Intuit will commit an
additional $1 million over the next three years to underserved
school districts that are part of the program to make a long-term
impact on the local economy. This follows Intuit’s recent donation
to the Los Angeles Unified School District in July 2021.
- Provide taxpayer assistance events to prepare and file taxes
for low-income families in the area free of charge during tax
season.
- Host educational events where local entrepreneurs and small
business owners including women or minority-owned businesses can
leverage workshops, networking, tools, education, and tips on how
to start, build, and grow a small business.
The Clippers have committed to the City of Inglewood the largest
community benefits package ever associated with an arena,
generating an estimated $260 million in annual economic
activity.
Intuit Dome has been designed to create an intimate and intense
fan experience through features such as “The Wall,” which is
comprised of 51 uninterrupted rows of seats that include a
dedicated supporters section; a two-sided halo scoreboard
encircling the bowl with an acre of LED lighting; and an 80,000
square foot outdoor plaza, surrounding a full-size outdoor court.
Technological advancements within Intuit Dome will allow for
frictionless concession stands, enabling fans to spend more time in
their seats.
Additional information about the Intuit Dome, and media
materials from this morning’s groundbreaking event, will be
available at www.clippers.com/intuitdome.
