The Advantages of sponsoring the MARS team

The MARS group's activities have traditionally been self-funded by the members of the team themselves. However, as the team's goals have expanded and the cost of each project has increased, the team have increasingly found it neccesary to seek corporate sponsorship to fund the group's activities.

MARS have been running sponsored projects for several years now, and have received nothing but positive feedback from our sponsors for the massive media exposure they have received, through the funding of the group's record-breaking activities.

As we rapidly approach the point where the group will be capable of placing payloads into space, the team's profile and exposure is increasing at a massive rate, and so the opportunities open to potential sponsors to piggy-back on that exposure are also expanding.

Listed below are some of MARS's media appearances over recent years, clearly demonstrating the potential cross-media exposure available to sponsors of the MARS team. Should you be interested in receiving further information about sponsorship opportunities with MARS, please contact us.
