Corporate Partnership

The TED Center values the unique relationship cultivated with each of its corporate partners – a relationship rooted in our commitment to help you reach and exceed your specific goals. An alliance with the TED Center positions your organization for leadership in providing significant partnering resources to entrepreneurs and those who advocate for their success:

As a recognized and respected non profit organization, the center lends added objectivity and credibility to your strategic initiatives.

The center helps you advance your ideas from conference table to boardroom to marketplace.

The high-level visibility that comes with the center’s sponsorship opportunities delivers results that expand your organization’s reach as a leading resource for business owners.

Just as companies are committed to establishing a leadership presence in their industries, they also seek to become leaders in their local communities. Whether your efforts are focused in regional or local communities, the Ted Center can deliver the potency of partnership for your organization. Ensuring that low-income individuals flourish in their businesses is also an excellent way to present a positive public image of corporate citizenship and create a tremendous opportunity for business growth. Promoting economic development and entrepreneurship provides great returns to companies and distressed communities alike.

The different levels of sponsorship and employee volunteerism available at the TED Center offers a unique opportunity for staff development and growth. Providing overall business guidance to our budding entrepreneurs or participating on one of our committees allows employees to develop new leadership skills, reinforce business knowledge and enlarge their communication skills with different audiences. Companies that actively encourage volunteerism have seen that it significantly improves employee morale and strengthens employee relations and commitment. The TED Center offers corporations and their employees an opportunity to participate directly in various areas of its programs where their time and talent will directly benefit economically-distressed communities, while fostering their own personal and professional enrichment.

The connections established with highly successful business people at TED Center’s fundraising events are also a direct benefit to any company interested in expanding and strengthening its professional network. Companies are afforded the chance of developing relationships with potential vendors from within economically distressed communities.
