ST. LOUIS — Perficient, Inc. (Nasdaq: PRFT) (“Perficient”), the leading global digital consultancy transforming the world’s largest enterprises and biggest brands, today announced it has entered into a multi-year, multi-faceted agreement with professional golfer Josef “Sepp” Straka.
“We’re thrilled to partner with Sepp as we continue to expand globally,” said Bill Davis, senior vice president, Perficient. “Golf is a global game, and we know Sepp will drive international visibility for us. We look forward to seeing him represent Perficient on tour and with our enterprise clients.”
Under the terms of the agreement, Perficient will receive a variety of marketing and corporate engagement benefits, and Straka will be introduced to and spend time with key executives at Perficient’s largest accounts.
“I am very excited to partner with Perficient, a global enterprise as dedicated to their clients and colleagues as I am to the game of golf,” said Straka. “I have ambitious goals for this season and my career. As I strive to bring an intense focus and unwavering determination to my game every day, I will take tremendous pride in wearing the Perficient brand on my chest knowing I’m representing an organization equally focused and determined.”
Straka was born in Vienna, Austria, and moved to Valdosta, Georgia, when he was 14. He played collegiate golf at the University of Georgia and graduated in 2016 with a degree in Business Management, going professional shortly after. Straka was the first Austrian-born player to earn a PGA TOUR card in 2019, and he represented Austria at the 2020 Olympic Games in Tokyo.
