Great awards aren't created by one organisation.
They're created by great people and great partners bringing what they do best. The storytellers. The marketers. The filmmakers and photographers. The media. The venues. The technology providers. The communities. The experts. The people behind the experience.
If your organisation could bring something valuable to Cardiff Excellence Awards, we'd love to discover where we could fit together.
You bring value. So should the partnership.
A strong partnership has to make sense for both sides. You bring what you do best; we bring an awards ecosystem where it becomes part of real business experiences, conversations and recognition. Let's find where the value meets.
You may bring
You could gain
- Visibility with the right people
- Relationships with entrants, finalists and guests
- Content you can use
- Work for your portfolio
- Credibility through the right association
- Business conversations
- A place in the business community
- Thought leadership opportunities
- A longer-term relationship
What each partnership delivers is agreed together. We don't promise leads, revenue or coverage we can't stand behind.
Don't worry about the partnership title.

Have an idea we haven’t listed?
Could your services strengthen the awards?
Mostly want to supply the event commercially?
Partner or supplier?
A supplier provides a product or service commercially. A partner creates value both ways around the awards. You can be both: a photography studio might supply the night and also be the official photography partner.
Looking to invest instead?
If you'd rather sponsor the awards for visibility, hospitality or thought leadership, sponsorship has its own page, built around what your brand wants to achieve.

Could we do both? Yes.
Some organisations build a stronger relationship by combining sponsorship with their own expertise, services, content, community or technology, over more than one season.
Maybe we haven't thought of the best partnership yet.

Some of the strongest partnerships begin with “what if we did this together?”
