Strategic alliance partners
Partnering with EO Albany entitles companies to obtain the eyes and ears of the EO’ers, most of whom have an aggressive need for strategic business partners and personal advice in helping them scale their quickly growing companies. In serving as a partner, your organization will have unique access and exposure to the EO membership. The benefits of becoming a partner are tremendous.
The benefits of becoming a partner are tremendous. Key benefits include:
Be identified with the prestigious Entrepreneurs’ Organization, the Capital District’s leading business association made up of the leaders of “fast growth” companies.
Mold a positive corporate image, by presenting your company as a prominent supporter of the region’s entrepreneurial community and its companies.
Make an investment that, although a fraction of the cost of traditional advertising or public relations, offers extensive, long-term relationships with the key decision-maker who potentially needs your services. There is no better qualified group in New York. There is not a better way to create a dialogue with an EO group than with this program.
Access key industry leaders and decision makers as part of the EO “team.” And access ongoing learning events for your own professional and personal development.
