CNBC Network Takeover Day

As part of our business press program for Polaris (NYSE: PII), the Skyya team created and secured an unprecedented “CNBC Takeover Day” at one of Polaris’ facilities to underscore the Company’s commitment to U.S. manufacturing, jobs creation and fair wages, and discussion on steel and aluminum tariffs and fair trade. It was well-timed given the escalation of the U.S.- China Trade War with President Trump imposing new tariffs on China that morning.
