Founded in 2018 as a founding member of USL League One, Greenville Triumph has established itself as one of the league’s premier organizations, winning the 2020 USL League One Championship and building one of the most passionate fan bases in the Southeast. The club continues to gain national and international recognition, including strategic investment from global soccer icon Ronaldinho.
Made in the Upstate – July 29, 2026
With more than 117,000 people employed in manufacturing across the Upstate, Made in the Upstate celebrates the people whose ingenuity, craftsmanship and innovation have helped define the region's manufacturing legacy. Hosted at GE Vernova Park in BridgeWay Station, the event will shine a spotlight on the engineers, manufacturers, skilled tradespeople, educators, entrepreneurs, and community leaders whose daily contributions drive the community forward. As Presenting Partner, Airsys will be featured across matchday activations, community programming, digital content and fan experiences leading up to and throughout the event, celebrating the very spirit of innovation and collaboration that continues to define the Upstate's rapid growth.
Through Greenville Triumph, the Triumph Foundation, and future collaborative initiatives, the partnership will support efforts that expand access to soccer, encourage youth participation, and promote literacy and leadership development.
Investing in the Next Chapter of the Upstate
Earlier this year, Airsys opened its new global headquarters campus in the Upstate, reinforcing the company’s long-term commitment to the region and its growing role as a center for innovation and advanced manufacturing. For Airsys and Greenville Triumph, rapid technological innovation and deliberate community investment are fundamentally linked — a combined force driving the region’s long-term prosperity.
