Is there an audience that the British Council can help you reach?
Partner with the British Council and we can help you engage with shared target audiences, such as students or young professionals. When you sponsor an event, exhibition or programme through the British Council, you will benefit from our full online and offline marketing infrastructure and expertise.
We are helping companies ranging from airlines to banks effectively promote their products and services.
Enhance your brand
The British Council’s brand is trusted all over the world and represents the best the UK has to offer. For more than 75 years we have been helping people and organisations globally.
Our brand is based on valuing people, integrity, mutuality, creativity and professionalism. These values underpin everything we do.
Whether you are looking to sponsor, co-brand or become an official partner, we can add value to your brand. Through channels including events, online campaigns and social media, we can also promote your brand nationwide and internationally.
Achieve your CSR aims
We can tap our expertise in running socially-minded programmes to help you achieve your goals for Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR). From developing and promoting a programme to building relationships and gaining employee buy-in, we will act as a full partner to ensure your efforts are effective.
An important strand of our CSR partnerships is engaging and motivating staff at our partner companies.
Staff involved in our CSR activities often report a strong sense of 'giving something back' and belonging to a socially responsible organisation. With our globally trusted brand, we are also able to promote your CSR profile both nationwide and internationally.
Access our global networks
For over 75 years, we have been forging links between the UK and other countries.
This enables us to build strong relationships with government leaders, policy makers, senior advisors and the wider public.
Our work spans education, society and the arts and we are able to connect you to global networks of expertise in each of these areas.
Our activities and exposure often go beyond country boundaries, enabling our partners to bring their activities up to an international level.
