-Sponsorship and partnerships

Join our network of friends and partners and support the future of our creative industries.

Sponsorships offer a valuable link between students and businesses that share our passion for innovation and creativity.

By sponsoring an event, project or a scholarship you will be providing vital financial support for our students. Businesses will also benefit through research, development and PR opportunities.

-Strategic partnerships

Partner with one of our renowned Colleges, courses or research centres and benefit from PR, talent management and expert consultancy for many years.

Our business support teams are experts in turning your business needs into a reality. We can work with you to create a framework that supports your company and makes the education we offer our students relevant to their future career.

Take a look at the case studies below and see some of successful strategic partnerships in action.

-Client projects

Every year more than 100 companies benefit from sponsoring one of our student projects.

A group of UAL students are invited to respond to a client brief, under the supervision of experienced academic staff and practitioners.

The project is often embedded within the curriculum. It offers students real-life commercial experience as part of their degree. The sponsoring company can enjoy free-flowing creative ideas to refined production ready concepts, depending on the brief. Our partners can get new products, service ideas or lively PR out of the projects and our students get to find out how the industry works – it’s a win-win.

Take a look at the case study below. Call us to find out more about potential opportunities.

-Event sponsorship

UAL has a wealth of event sponsorship opportunities as well as a youth associated brand that is out on its own.

Sponsor a College degree show and you will have the opportunity to reach tens of thousands of young designers and the art and design industry.

If you want to reach the fashion and style sector what about sponsoring a catwalk show? Or perhaps you want to create your own event? Check out our venue hire and event creation page.
