Sponsorship & partnerships

Support practical innovation where it is taking shape.

Nexus connects founders, experts and organisations around real opportunities, challenges and next steps. Sponsorship gives your organisation a clear, agreed way to support that work and be visible across the Nexus ecosystem.

Why partner with Nexus

Visibility connected to useful work.

Support founders and emerging ventures, help bring expert knowledge into the room, and make practical events and challenges possible without overstating what sponsorship can deliver.

01Practical innovation

Back activity with a next step.

Support work around real challenges, projects, events and useful connections.

02Relevant visibility

Be present where it fits.

Visibility is agreed around the level of support and the relevant Nexus activity.

03Clear boundaries

Know what is included.

Each package sets out agreed recognition and opportunities. It does not promise customers, funding, sales, leads or specific introductions.

Annual Sponsorship

Choose the level that fits your organisation.

Every annual package is for one year. Each level includes the benefits above it, with activities agreed around relevance, availability and the Nexus programme.

Event Sponsorship

From £300 per event.

Support a single Nexus activity when an annual package is not the right fit. Hackathons, workshops, roundtables, founder events, Where Next? sessions and future conferences can each have a different sponsorship conversation.

Depending on the event, a package may include event branding, logo placement, exhibition or showcase space, complimentary tickets, acknowledgement in event communications, a commercial presentation opportunity where appropriate, or headline naming opportunities for selected events.

Event scope, benefits and payment are agreed before confirmation. Not every benefit is available at every event.

Keep products separate

Sponsorship is not a membership upgrade.

Sponsorship supports Nexus activity and visibility. The products below remain separate unless Nexus agrees a bespoke partnership.

Expert Contributor

Free and approval based. Sponsorship does not buy expert status, judging or mentoring.

Longer partnerships

Looking for a longer partnership?

Multi-year and bespoke strategic partnerships are available by agreement. We do not publish fixed multi-year discounts because the work, visibility and support should be agreed properly first.
