Sponsorship opportunities
Sponsorship of Council events, programmes and publications, with the audience described honestly.
Opportunities
02
Programme sponsorship
Support a programme for a full year — mentoring, start-up support or a sector forum.
03
Publication sponsorship
Support a briefing or report. Acknowledged on the publication; editorial control stays with the Council.
04
Delegation sponsorship
Support an outbound or inbound trade mission, with participation in the business programme.
The audience
Council members are business owners, corporate leaders, professionals, founders, investors and institutional representatives, admitted against published criteria.
Audience figures are published only once verified. No estimated reach, attendance or demographic breakdown appears here — a sponsor who discovers an inflated number stops believing the rest of the proposal.
What sponsorship does not buy
- Editorial control. Content remains the Council's, and sponsored sessions declare the commercial relationship on the agenda.
- Member contact details. The directory is never shared with sponsors.
- Endorsement. Sponsorship is not an endorsement of the sponsor's products or services and must not be described as one.
- Membership. Sponsors who want membership apply through the normal assessed process.
