NCAT is grateful for the opportunity to work with you to imagine, plan, and execute The Experience: ATE In Action on the second week of August 2022 at the Mall of America. A large part of the preparation work is leveraging shared networks to consider event partners who may be interested in having a presence at the event through financial contributions.

These types of corporate and/or private partnerships are most often heavily relationship-based wherein a quick email and/or phone call can open the door to endless possibilities to support the upcoming event. Conversations that start today can plant the seeds for an ongoing relationship that lasts well into the future.

On that note, NCAT is asking for your assistance in offering shared networking opportunities. We are asking you to please take 5-10 minutes to consider the below questions. Once we have the results of this survey back, we will assess the answers and determine how to best prioritize cultivation and outreach methods.

Please enter your contact information.

Please take a moment to consider your network and relationships with some of the area’s top corporations and/or private foundations (i.e. 3M, Land O’Lakes, Mayo Clinic, Cargill, Xcel Energy, Polaris, etc.) From your perspective, please identify the top 3 to 5 corporations that you feel would be a high priority for NCAT to begin cultivating relationships with. In 3 to 5 sentences, please describe from your perspective what makes them a high-priority prospect for helping to fund this event?

Of the top 3-5 entities identified in Question 1, do you have a contact at the Corporation, or do you know someone who serves on its Board of Directors? If yes, please identify the person and the relationship with them.

If you identified names in Question 2 above, please indicate if you would be willing to introduce NCAT to your contact to discuss the ATE in Action event.

Other than corporations and/or private foundations, are there any industry partners you feel may be interested in supporting this event?  If so, please list them below.
