FAQs
Why partner with the Sharks and Barracuda?
Because they represent a city in the heart of Silicon Valley, the Sharks and Barracuda have many tech workers in their fan base and this overlaps with Tech CU’s membership base. Through our partnership, we will have many opportunities to reach out to
our members while also letting potential members know about the products and services we offer.
The Sharks and Barracuda are also deeply involved in community activities. Tech CU shares many focus areas including STEAM education, cancer support, holiday giving, financial literacy, and student assistance. Through Tech CU’s Community Partnership Program,
we look forward to combining forces with The Sharks Foundation and Cuda Cares to continue our heritage of giving back to our community.
When did the partnership start?
The official start date was July 1, 2022. It is a 10-year agreement that includes naming rights on Tech CU Arena (the home of the Barracuda), signage in both Tech CU Arena and SAP Center, partnership in several community initiatives, and exclusive benefits
for our members.
As a member, can I get access to tickets?
