WAYS TO PARTNER
Choose the impact you want to make
Sponsorship can stand alone or be paired with a program. We agree on the format, duration, student audience, and recognition before any commitment.
Year-round partner
Support workshops, design showcases, catering, and builder tools. Recognition runs across club programming during the agreed term.
Event partner
Support a talk, fireside chat, workshop, or showcase. We agree on the audience, venue, promotion, and sponsor presence together.
Talent partner
Pair a recruiting session with an opt-in résumé drop, technical or business challenge, or career follow-up where appropriate.
Project partner
Back a scoped student design or technical project, with agreed milestones, mentorship, and a final presentation.
A TRANSPARENT STARTING POINT
Support scales with the impact circle
We start with a $1,000 programming contribution + about $4 per student in the agreed impact circle—the estimated number of students a partnership is designed to reach. This is a planning guide, not a fixed rate or a guaranteed audience.
~100 students
~$1,400
A focused talk, workshop, or showcase
~200 students
~$1,800
A larger event or targeted talent campaign
~500 students
~$3,000
Broad network or year-round visibility
Illustrative amounts only. Final support starts above $1,000 and is tailored to the format, duration, production needs, and agreed benefits; any added venue, catering, prize, or tool costs are discussed upfront. Student reach is an estimate, not a promise of attendance, applications, or résumés.
WHAT SPONSORS RECEIVE
Recognition matched to the partnership
Recognition
Name and logo on the relevant event or program materials, website, and agreed social or newsletter promotion. Year-round partners are acknowledged at each club program during their term.
Student connection
Relevant career opportunities, opt-in résumé collection, or project feedback can be included when agreed with the partner and students.
Clear follow-through
A short recap of the programming, participation, and engagement supported. Year-round partners receive a semester summary.
FUNDING CYCLES
October 15 · February 15
We seek commitments by October 15 for the fall cycle and February 15 for the spring cycle each year. Event-specific and year-round terms can be discussed with our outreach team.
EVENT FUNDING, EXPLAINED
A separate source of support
AI@Penn can currently receive up to $2,000 per event from the Wharton AI & Analytics Initiative, depending on event size and approval. That is a separate potential funding source—not a sponsor fee or an automatic offset.
Want to build something together?
We also co-host talks, fireside chats, recruiting sessions, business and technical challenges, workshops, and student projects. AI@Penn promotes the event and can book a venue to your requested capacity, or your team can book directly.
