This infrastructure design firm just announced a partnership with Drew Brees

HNTB Corp., a national infrastructure design firm with an office in downtown Baton Rouge, on Thursday announced an exclusive partnership with legendary New Orleans Saints quarterback Drew Brees.

According to a statement from HNTB, the partnership is intended to “amplify HNTB’s influence in sports architecture and infrastructure” across the nation. Over the course of the past five decades, the firm has had a hand in shaping some of the nation’s most high-profile stadiums, arenas and civic venues, including Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas; Levi’s Stadium in Santa Clara, California; and Lower.com Field in Columbus, Ohio.

Brees’ deep-rooted relationships across the business, civic and sports communities align “seamlessly” with HNTB’s culture and values, the firm says.

“This exclusive collaboration represents the next chapter of HNTB’s mission to shape the future of sports and public spaces—bringing world-class design, engineering and vision to some of the most iconic and impactful venues in the country,” the statement from HNTB reads.

In the announcement, Brees agrees that HNTB’s mission aligns well with his own.

“HNTB is a company that designs more than facilities—it creates experiences, opportunities and communities,” the New Orleans Saints Hall of Famer says. “I’m excited to partner with a firm whose values reflect my own.”
