BUSINESS DEVELOPMENT

MY FAC

Business and Network development is often why companies and individuals join FAC. The FAC Portal and Website offer several ways for members to promote themselves and their products or services - as well as news, information and group connections with institutions or international clusters with whom FAC has a partnership.

The promotional adveritising by members helps FAC to support the community development programs we offer such as this web site. We have a simple rate card covering specific costs for running a promotion to members.

Here are some of the ways we can help raise awareness and put a spotlight on your company:

growth and Business Development

• Page and Section Sponsorship - whole page or section sponsorship that both supports the work of FAC and associates you with the subject matter (be that defence, or renewables, air mobility or recruitment).
• Page Promotions and Advertising - on page sidebar and/or banner adverts, designed to catch eye and promote you and your business on a specific subject.
• Event Support - host an event, or present your products and services to members via a webinar. We work to support your event, promoting it to members and non-members alike, facilitating questions and answers, and forming introductions where requested.
• Dedicated Storefronts - bespoke storefronts that enable members to promote a product or service or simply the business behind it all. Your storefront can be set up to be a focal point designed to raise awareness, with leads and interest generated pointed directly back to you. Think of the storefronts as having a 24/7/365 exhibition that all members - including free associates from around the world - can view.
• Featured Members Pages - an enhanced profile for your business that can include videos, PDF document downloads, image galleries and more. Featured member pages are open to members and level 2 associate members.
• Annual Membership Directory - our annual directory carries the profiles of all members, plus a select number of adverts.
• Marketplace Products & Services - add products and services to our directory using a simple form. Available to all members including level 2 associate members
• Sector and Technology Focus Groups - support a dedicated section of the website and portal with a focus on a key sector or an emerging technology.
• White Papers - sponsorship of a technology white paper can really help position your brand with innovative developments in the world of aerospace, space, defence, UAVs and air mobility, and renewable power.
• Member News -  the member news is being completely overhauled in order to reduce the amount of information we provide, whilst increasing the quality. The member news service takes many forms. We are looking for 'thought leaders' on a particular subject that other members will be interested in.
• General Business Listings with Profiles - a simple means of building awareness and making other members familiar with your business, its skills, capabilities, resources, approvals and accreditation.
• FAC Connect Service - a special service designed to understand better who else in the FAC membership you would like to communicate with and (if agreed to mutually) where we can introduce businesses to each other.

EXPORTS & INTERNATIONAL SALES

Farnborough Aerospace Consortium has global awareness and a reputation for excellence. We partner with many International aerospace clusters in Europe, the USA, Canada and elsewhere. We hold regular webinar events with these partners and are looking to build new groups by combining  members from multiple countries. 

PROFESSIONAL SERVICES AND SOLUTIONS PARTNERS

FAC work with non-aerospace businesses and enable them to promote their services to members. We have a professional services section in the portal and members organisations can join and promote their specialist offerings here - from legal through recruitment to telecoms and cyber security.

FUNDING

Lastly we coordinate funding opportunities from local, regional and national government - usually through recognized investment programs such as Made Smarter or NATEP.
