“Teaming up with the Sacramento Kings as patch partner is an incredible opportunity for Reviver to champion innovation and diversity in technology,” said Reviver Founder and Chief Strategy Officer Neville Boston. “Both Reviver and the Kings share a forward-thinking mindset, constantly pushing the boundaries in our respective industries. This partnership allows us to amplify our brand nationally and highlight the importance of tech-driven solutions that reflect the diverse and dynamic communities we serve. Together, we’re proud to represent Sacramento’s future and its leadership in innovation.”

“As an investment firm dedicated to hands-on business development to drive growth, we couldn’t be prouder to support our portfolio company, Reviver, and to have helped secure this ground-breaking partnership with the Sacramento Kings,” said Black Star Fund Founding Managing Partner Kwame Anku. “This partnership is a testament to the power of collaboration, bringing together Sacramento-based businesses across multiple industries, all aligned in a shared mission to drive economic growth while supporting our vibrant community.”

This partnership establishes Reviver as the first Black-founded technology jersey patch partner among the NBA. Through this collaboration, Reviver will be the presenting partner of the Kings Capitalize: Technology competition, which was launched in 2016 as the NBA’s first crowdsourced startup competition. In 2019, Reviver was a contestant in the fourth annual Capitalize: Technology competition, where founder Neville Boston was introduced to Kwame Anku the Founding Managing Partner and Chief Investment Officer of Black Star Fund. Over the years, the two have continued to work together bringing Reviver to full production.

Headquartered locally in Granite Bay, California, Reviver was born from a vision to modernize and streamline the vehicle registration renewal process. Reviver transforms the conventional license plate into a forward-looking connected vehicle. Reviver’s RPLATE provides consumers with a battery-powered digital license plate for ease of use, while commercial businesses have a hard-wired solution tailored for efficient fleet management, both accessible via a mobile or web app. Reviver’s digital license plates are currently legal for sale and DMV registration in California and Arizona with additional states currently in various stages of adoption.

Through this partnership, the Kings and Reviver, backed by the Black Star Fund, will invest in the Sacramento community to advance technology and innovation in the region.  Reviver will also support the Sacramento Kings community and diversity, equity and inclusion initiatives.
