Tepper Sports & Entertainment announces Trane Technologies as Cornerstone Partner. September 29, 2026 Tepper Sports & Entertainment (TSE) has announced that Trane Technologies has been named a Cornerstone Partner, extending a long-term commitment to the future of Bank of America Stadium. The company will serve as the exclusive Official Climate Technology Partner and an Official Sustainability Partner of both the Carolina Panthers and Charlotte FC. The designation places Trane Technologies among a select group of Cornerstone Partners and reflects the company's deep ties to the Carolinas. Trane Technologies, a global climate innovator with more than 45,000 employees around the world, maintains its North American headquarters in Davidson, North Carolina and employs more than 4,600 employees across North Carolina and South Carolina. The announcement builds on a relationship that began in 2018 when the organizations first worked together on a comprehensive upgrade to Bank of America Stadium's climate and cooling systems to improve fan comfort, indoor air quality and energy efficiency. "Trane Technologies has been a trusted partner for many years, and we're excited to have them play an even greater role as we continue the transformation of Bank of America Stadium," said Kristi Coleman, Tepper Sports & Entertainment CEO. "Their decision to become a Cornerstone Partner reflects the strength of our relationship, the value they bring to this project and a shared vision for what it means for our fans, our region and future generations." Trane Technologies will become the presenting partner of the 300-Level Silver Club at Bank of America Stadium in 2029, encompassing more than 50,000 square feet of premium hospitality space and four adjacent club destinations across the level. As part of the stadium's ongoing transformation, the company is also leading the upgrade of the venue's HVAC infrastructure systems and controls to continue to improve comfort, efficiency and performance throughout the stadium. "Bank of America Stadium is a powerful economic and community asset for the Carolinas, and we're honored to serve as a Cornerstone Partner to support its next chapter," said Dave Regnery, chair and CEO of Trane Technologies. "We believe innovation can help shape a more sustainable future, and we look forward to continuing our support of this important venue and its transformation, providing advanced climate technology that helps enhance stadium comfort, efficiency and performance for years to come." Another key component of the partnership is the continuation of the STEM Stadium of the Future Challenge, a 10-week program that empowers North and South Carolina high school students to dream big and design the next generation of sports venues. Challenged to envision what an NFL-style stadium built for their school could look like, students use STEM skills to create innovative concepts that blend sustainability, technology, fan experience, accessibility and school pride. Supported by mentors from Trane Technologies, teams construct scale models of their designs and present them before a panel of industry leaders, competing for Panthers Charities and Trane Technologies Foundation grants that help advance STEM education in their schools.
JMG, Trane push smarter air conditioning as Nigeria's building boom gathers pace. With the continuous shift in Nigeria's skyline, another demand is quietly growing with it: how to keep the country's expanding commercial, industrial and residential spaces comfortable without adding unnecessarily to the cost of running them. That is bringing renewed attention to cooling and climate-control systems as construction and industrial activity gather pace across the country. At The Big 5 Construct Nigeria 2026 in Lagos, JMG Limited, through its Clima division, and in partnership with Trane Technologies, is highlighting the growing need for cooling systems that deliver both reliable performance and greater energy efficiency. JMG Limited is the official distributor of Trane air conditioning solutions, delivering leading air conditioning solutions for residential, commercial and industrial projects. Vineeth Vijayan, Sales Leader, Nigeria and Ghana, Trane Air Conditioning, said the market for cooling and climate control is receiving increasing attention as development accelerates. "Buildings are going up, left, right and centre, and these buildings require cooling, specialised kinds of cooling and commercial cooling," Vijayan said, noting that Trane has solutions across different cooling requirements. For Idoko Jonahs Adejoh, Business Development Manager, HVAC, JMG Limited, however, the conversation goes beyond installing cooling equipment to consider what it will cost to operate over time. He said JMG Clima's partnership with Trane Technologies is helping to provide HVAC systems that are not only designed to cool spaces, but also to improve energy efficiency. "JMG Clima has partnered with Trane Technologies to provide heating, ventilation and cooling systems to Nigeria, not just cooling systems, but cooling systems that are energy efficient," Adejoh said. He added that while some energy-efficient systems may require a higher initial investment, the long-term savings can make them worthwhile. "The initial investment into this might be a bit high, but in the long run, it cuts down on your energy consumption, giving you good value for your investment," he said. The point is increasingly relevant to businesses where the cost of powering and maintaining facilities can weigh heavily on daily operations. JMG's relationship with Trane also provides customers with local support across the sales and after-sales process, according to Vijayan. "Customers are benefiting not really only on the sales aspect, but also on the after-sales aspect," he said. As more buildings rise across Nigeria, the cooling industry is facing a market that is not only asking for comfort, but demanding efficiency, reliability and value over the life of the equipment. And perhaps that is the bigger story emerging from the construction sector: the future of a building will be judged not only by how well it is built, but by how intelligently it operates.
