The placement delivers national visibility across key U.S. and Canadian markets, particularly during televised road games in cities including Toronto, Seattle, Las Vegas, Dallas, Boston, and New York. The deal was brokered by AEG Global Partnerships.<\/p>\n<p>Beyond branding, the partnership centers on using Twilio\u2019s technology to enhance fan engagement. The Kings plan to integrate Twilio\u2019s platform across their communications ecosystem to deliver more personalized messaging, real-time updates, and interactive experiences tied to game moments and season milestones.<\/p>\n<p>The collaboration will also include co-created content highlighting the technology behind the fan experience, along with away-game events and hospitality activations in select markets. For the Kings, the deal supports a broader strategy focused on data-driven fan relationships across ticketing, content, and game-day engagement. For Twilio, it provides a high-profile platform to demonstrate how its customer engagement tools translate into live sports environments.<\/p>\n<p>As tech-driven engagement becomes increasingly central to professional sports, the Kings-Twilio partnership underscores how teams are investing off the ice to deepen fan connection and drive measurable business impact.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The LA Kings have announced a new multi-year partnership with customer engagement platform Twilio, marking the company\u2019s first&hellip;","protected":false},"author":219894228,"featured_media":20094,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_crdt_document":"","pad_hide_post_author":"","csco_display_header_overlay":false,"csco_singular_sidebar":"","csco_page_header_type":"","csco_page_load_nextpost":"","csco_post_video_location":[],"csco_post_video_location_hash":"","csco_post_video_url":"","csco_post_video_bg_start_time":0,"csco_post_video_bg_end_time":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_publicize_message":"","jetpack_publicize_feature_enabled":true,"jetpack_social_post_already_shared":true,"jetpack_social_options":{"image_generator_settings":{"template":"highway","default_image_id":0,"font":"","enabled":false},"version":2}},"categories":[1408,1455,1779],"tags":[3268,2392,2453,3267,2454],"class_list":{"0":"post-20089","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-business","8":"category-sports","9":"category-technology","10":"tag-fan-engagement","11":"tag-la-kings","12":"tag-nhl","13":"tag-nhl-sponsorships","14":"tag-twilio","15":"cs-entry","16":"cs-video-wrap"},"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v27.1 (Yoast SEO v27.2) - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-premium-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>LA Kings and Twilio Partner to Power Tech-Driven Fan Engagement<\/title>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/footwearmagazine.com\/?p=20089\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"LA Kings and Twilio Partner to Power Tech-Driven Fan Engagement\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"The LA Kings have announced a new multi-year partnership with customer engagement platform Twilio, marking the company\u2019s first&hellip;\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:url\" content=\"https:\/\/footwearmagazine.com\/?p=20089\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:site_name\" content=\"Footwear Magazine\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:publisher\" content=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/footwearmagazine\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:published_time\" content=\"2025-12-16T00:59:27+00:00\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:modified_time\" content=\"2025-12-17T00:06:30+00:00\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:image\" content=\"https:\/\/footwearmagazine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/120325_Helmets_ahp-08063-26-77-scaled.jpg\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:width\" content=\"2560\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:height\" content=\"2560\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:type\" content=\"image\/jpeg\" \/>\n<meta name=\"author\" content=\"Alyssa J.
