Huawei to Sponsor New Zealand’s Soccer Friendly with China

Huawei New Zealand has agreed a sponsorship deal to be the match partner for New Zealand’s friendly football game with China happening on November 14.

The match is part of celebrations marking 40 years of diplomatic relations between New Zealand and China, according to a statement from Huawei.

It was the first sponsorship deal of its kind that Huawei New Zealand has entered into and although it is only for a single match, a company spokesperson said discussions may be had in the future about a longer partnership.
