Reach 45,000 commodity professionals in return for a donation to our charity. Sponsor one of our newsletter editions.

As one of our fundraising initiatives, we wanted to gauge the interest from companies in the commodities sphere to charity sponsor an edition of our newsletter. This may appeal to firms that would like exposure to our global audience of commodity professionals - a loyal group of decent and educated followers whose subscription to our newsletter we take very seriously indeed.

We would never 'sell' advertising space in Inform, but at a recent team brainstorm on how we can raise funds for our charity partner 'Dreams Come True', the idea of getting charity donations in return for a favourable sponsor role seemed a potential win-win.

Our work with 'Dreams Come True' started in 2015 when I embarked on the training to participate in the Marathon Des Sables 31st edition. 

I completed the run in April 2016 and raised some ￡15K from the commodity trading community at the time. With this effort, the charity brand Headhunters on the Run was born, hosting all our activities under one banner (and obviously a good excuse to design a T-shirt as well). I joined their fundraising board in 2016.

In November 2016 we sponsored a day at Hamleys' iconic toy store on Regent Street in London for the Dreams families and we are currently helping launch a number of initiatives for 2017.

Anyway, back to the value proposition - each edition of Inform is read by approximately 45,000 people. I figured that the audience could be interesting for companies in the news business, software, legal, consulting and professional services, anything with a commodities angle.

If your business is interested in supporting a good cause and get some first class commercial exposure at the same time then please drop me a line via LinkedIn.
