MT. PROSPECT, Ill. (March 26, 2024)Bosch Power Tools and the Chicago Cubs today announced a new sponsorship agreement, solidifying the brand’s position as the club’s Official Power Tools, Power Tool Accessories and Measuring Tools Partner.

The partnership between Bosch Power Tools and the Cubs acknowledges and extends the home-state pride of the two organizations and their shared principles of hard work, drive and deep commitment to community. For the 2024 regular season, Bosch Power Tools will have in-ballpark signage for the 2024 season as well as in-game video board features and daily rotational signage on the iconic Wrigley Field Marquee.

"This is a natural fit between two organizations rooted in Chicagoland whose strong brands share the same DNA of hard work and community purpose,” said Teresa Sabatino, Director of Brand Marketing Power Tools North America. “We’re looking forward to showing our appreciation for the city’s hard workers in the stands and on the field all season long.”

In a nod to the versatile performance it takes to win on the field or at the jobsite, Bosch Power Tools will serve as the presenting sponsor of the Cubs’ new “5-Tool Performance” social content series which will spotlight Cubs players throughout the season, showcasing their five “baseball tools” from speed, hitting, hitting for power, fielding and arm strength. Fans will be able to watch the new content series on Cubs social media channels.

"The partnership between Bosch Power Tools and the Cubs is forged by the common denominator of giving it your all whether on the field or on the job,” said Alex Seyferth, Vice President of Corporate Partnerships, Cubs. “We’re proud to partner with Bosch Power Tools and align with a historic brand that has a standard for performance, innovation and reliability.”

Off the field, Bosch Power Tools is committed to supporting trade workers across the country and making meaningful connections with those in need.
