SEATTLE, Nov. 10, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- HTC, a global
leader in technology innovation and design, has signed a multi-year
agreement with six-time MLB All-Star and Seattle Mariners 2nd
baseman Robinson Cano. The
partnership between HTC and Robinson
Cano is born out of a shared dedication to the pursuit of
personal excellence.
"HTC is a natural fit for me because they always want to be the
best at what they do," Cano said. "Their products are great for me
because I'm always on the road and I need my phone to work as hard
as I do."
Cano's dedication to sportsmanship and mentorship were defining
factors in HTC naming him a North American ambassador for the
brand.
"Robbie's authentic enthusiasm for our products, brand and
company values made the decision to work together easy," said
Erin McGee, VP of Marketing for HTC
Americas. "HTC is a company driven by passionate employees who
believe in teamwork, co-creation and empowering others to pursue
their brilliance. Robbie's leadership on and off the field aligns
seamlessly with HTC's core values and we are excited about his
contributions over the next few years."
In addition to establishing himself as a prominent member of the
Seattle community in the past
year, Cano continues to build his RC22 Foundation to serve
underprivileged youth worldwide. HTC recognizes and supports Cano's
