The International Bank of Azerbaijan signes a cooperation agreement with the football club "Juventus"
The agreement will see the IBA and the reigning Italian champions collaborate in a series of activities within Azerbaijan beginning with the opening of a new Juventus Academy based at the Inter Arena in Baku. The Academy’s main purpose will be to facilitate the growth of youth football in the country and aid in improving the infrastructure already in place at the club.
Collaborating with Juventus Football Club – a name recognized the world over – also presents an excellent opportunity to promote the IBA’s products and services internationally by using the Juventus brand in its own publications while also featuring on the Turin club’s website. The IBA is committed to continuing its efforts to develop sporting initiatives in Azerbaijan.
For more information on the IBA’s products and services, please visit its official website www.ibar.az, any one of its 35 branches and 43 sub branches, or call the Information Center at (012) 937 and *2265.—0--
