Sweepstakes begins at 12:00 a.m. ET on 2/4 and ends at 5:30 p.m. ET on 2/9For more information on “Kia Squares,” check out Kia America’s Instagram (@kiausa) and TikTok (@kiausa) accounts

IRVINE, Calif., Feb. 4, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — With more than 100 million people set to tune into the Big Game, Kia America is suiting up for the launch of the “Kia Squares” game-within-a-game vehicle sweepstakes. As a football staple in living rooms across the country, entrants whose numbers on the ten-by-ten grid match the last digits of the score at the end of each quarter will have a chance to win a new Kia vehicle.

From 12:00 a.m. ET on February 4, 2025 to 5:30 p.m. ET on February 9, 2025, Kia’s Instagram and TikTok accounts will be directing audiences to a second-screen mobile experience at www.kiasquares.com, where players can choose a square on the game grid anytime during that window. The grid’s rows and columns will be randomly assigned numbers 0-9 and each square will display a Kia vehicle. The last digit of each team’s score at the end of each quarter will correspond to a square on the grid. All entrants who selected that square will be entered into that quarter’s random drawing for a chance to win a Kia vehicle. A total of four Kia vehicles will be awarded, one after each quarter. Each winner will be awarded one of the following eight Kia vehicles, as shown on their selected square (colors and options may vary): the all-electric three-row EV9 GT-Line SUV; the EV6 GT-Line; the Sportage X-Pro SUV; the Sorento X-Pro SUV; the Telluride X-Pro SUV; the K4 GT compact sedan; the K5 GT mid-size sedan; or the Carnival SX Prestige HEV.

“Kia Squares offers football fans an interactive way to participate in the game and provides not only a fun way for fans to root for their favorite team but also a chance to win one of Kia’s award-winning vehicles, including the all-electric EV9 which is the reigning World Car of the Year,” said Russell Wager, vice president, marketing, Kia America. “Kia Squares is designed to engage football fans on their electronic devices and elevate the Big Game viewing experience.”

Selected squares will be announced at four separate times throughout the duration of the game – at the end of each quarter according to that quarter’s score – so the end of every quarter of the Big Game is a chance to win.  

“This creative approach allows us to interact with fans of the game – and fans of the Kia brand – at multiple points during the broadcast,” continued Wager. “Instead of being passive observers during the game, people can actively participate in the sweepstakes and engage with popular social media platforms – Instagram and TikTok. We’re excited to see the blitz of activity the Kia Squares game-within-a-game experience will generate.”  

The Kia Squares sweepstakes campaign will include online digital and social components including, 15- and 6-second online videos: digital banner ads; social media skins; and online social media ad placement on TikTok, Meta and YouTube.

Eqvista Launches Company-Sponsored Tender Offers, Expanding Private Market Liquidity Capabilities

New tender offer capabilities connect equity management with real-time valuation data covering approximately 65,000 private companies with a combined estimated value of $9 trillion, laying the groundwork for future secondary marketplace capabilities.

SAN FRANCISCO, Oct. 19, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Eqvista, a leading equity management and valuation platform serving more than 25,000 companies, today announced the launch of company-sponsored tender offer capabilities, enabling private companies to organize structured liquidity events directly within their equity management platform. The launch also marks a step toward Eqvista’s planned secondary marketplace capabilities.

As companies stay private longer, employees and early investors face limited opportunities to sell their shares. Meanwhile, organizing liquidity events involves complex decisions around pricing, participant eligibility, approvals, and ownership changes.

Eqvista brings these processes together through a company-controlled tender offer workflow, supported by its equity management infrastructure and Eqvista Real-Time Company Valuation® technology.

“With Eqvista, private companies can help their employees and early investors turn their shares into cash, rewarding them for their contributions to the company,” said Tomas Milar, Founder and CEO of Eqvista. “We already help companies manage ownership and understand their value. Bringing tender offers into the same platform is a natural next step toward connecting equity management, valuation, and liquidity.”

Company-Controlled Tender Offers

Eqvista’s new capabilities allow companies to manage tender offers while maintaining control over participation, transaction terms, and ownership changes.

Key features include:

Cap table integration: Automatically record completed ownership changes.Participant controls: Define eligible buyers and sellers and offer windows.Allocation rules: Set transaction limits, pro rata allocations, and priorities.Integrated approvals: Manage approval requirements and rights of first refusal.Valuation-informed pricing: Reference Eqvista Real-Time Company Valuation® data when evaluating transaction pricing.

By integrating these processes, Eqvista aims to reduce the administrative complexity of organizing liquidity events while helping companies maintain control over their shareholder base.

Building Toward a Secondary Marketplace

Building on its company-sponsored tender offer capabilities, Eqvista plans to expand into secondary marketplace infrastructure designed to support structured, company-approved liquidity programs. By connecting ownership records, real-time valuation data, and private share transactions within one platform, Eqvista aims to make private market liquidity more accessible while allowing companies to maintain control over participation and ownership changes. Further details will be announced as development progresses, subject to applicable regulatory requirements.
