Our client Campus Group brought STA to campus and said: "It was a fantastic day. The location was brilliant and we
found that it was the busiest day we had at that point in our university tour. Students seemed interested in the event... and we found that students were prominent on social media, sharing their photos of the event. After this event, we will certainly look to do more at Goldsmiths."

Sponsorship
Why sponsor us, our sports teams and societies? Goldsmiths Students’ Union is a charity independent to the University, acting to represent and support all students at Goldsmiths. In sponsoring a society or sports team, you are offered the opportunity to further their impact and reach otherwise impossible goals. Societies and Sports teams provide exciting and unique extra-curricular activities for the student body and offer committee members and captains invaluable experience in personal development and leadership skills. Working with us not only gives you the opportunity to advertise to the student market, in terms of website advertisements and your logo featured on various events and web pages, but there may also be opportunities to meet our students face-to-face whether that’s having a presence at events or providing workshops or talks.

Sponsorship Sponsor a Sports Team
Sponsor a Society
There are many ways our sponsors support our sports clubs; through covering kit costs or specialist equipment costs, funding international competitions, sponsoring events such as Varsity or Sports Awards Nights, or offering career development opportunities. Have your logo featured on our kits which travel to national leagues and competitions. You will also have a website advert featured on the sports team webpage.
Does your company seek to collaborate with a society that’s relevant to your company? Do you wish to form a partnership with a student media group such as our magazine, newspaper or radio station? We have a thriving community of societies, who are concerned with providing the best specialist events and workshops for students.
