easa010 UK - Manchester
The following pages are a list of sponsorship categories and ways in which an interested party can get involved in a meaningful way. We have separated our requirements into different elements and items available for potential sponsorship. Participating in sponsorship through either large donations or purchasing of specific events or items means that your company will have a very real input into the assembly, with your support having a meaningful existence. Furthermore it allows us to associate well defined elements of the assembly with specific sponsors, enabling us to better return the favour within our final reports and exhibitions. This said, the assembly requires a lot in terms of sponsorship to become real. Material and financial support is needed and greatly appreciated. This document illustrates possible ways in which a company can support us as we are dedicated to fully supporting any sponsorship we receive.

Why to sponsor? Within the architectural realm of the UK, easa010 will be an event of massive scale with almost no precedent. Interest in the event is high, through both our own industry and the natural magnetism of the event itself. The assembly will be watched over with much interest from those not directly involved, and any association with the assembly will offer potential sponsors an opportunity at positive promotion amongst the architectural, construction and artistic societies in the UK. Ultimately EASA is always a very enjoyable event, always remembered fondly by all involved, and to get behind this assembly is to associate yourselves with positive memories amongst literally hundreds of future and budding professionals in what is a highly influential professional body across Europe. As an organisation we have been doing our utmost to promote awareness of the assembly across the country. Presentations have, or will be, given to universities located all across the country. Our final exhibition, showcasing the fruits of the assembly as well as promotional information about the sponsors will travel the country. In the months after the event we will create our final report which will be sent out to national contacts in over forty countries, offering your company exposure to students all over Europe. easa010 has already been featured in national newspapers, and we have given talks on local radio stations in Manchester. Furthermore, architectural journals and national papers will be covering the event in the future, and we have been in discussions with a production company with regards to making a documentary of the assembly to be aired on British television, and sent out to members of the network across Europe. All of these are avenues to benefit your company should you see fit to support easa010.
