Partnership programme / proposed terms
Begin with a one-on-one discussion. Choose the area of work your organisation can support, submit a package request, or ask for a tailored invitation letter.
Partnership proposals cover preparation and activations, the 26 October 2026 Summit, follow-through and a proposed first 100 days programme beginning at the new Council's first sitting. Dates, scope and institutional participation remain subject to written approval.
All amounts and entitlements are proposed. Submitting this form records your request for review. It does not take payment, reserve an exclusive position or conclude a sponsorship agreement. Tax treatment and payment terms will be specified in the written schedule.
