Why Invest in Australia Week?
AWM offers companies from Australia and Germany a platform that they can help shape themselves. Choose an event or organise your own themed event during an AWM. Create a showcase in Germany, present yourself, your products and services and do it together with Australian art, music and culture. Invest in your own future, your market entry or new partnerships.
Why Become a sponsor or Patron?
We are open to sponsors and patrons and welcome offers.
What we don’t want to do are standardized sponsorship packages, pure logo space or very general offers. Of course, these classic sponsorship elements also have their place and come along. But this is not dependent on gold, silver or bronze grids. Rather, we want to work with you to get to know your target audience, target the right audience and customers, and see how we can meaningfully connect you with your target market. Then we put together a package that you agree with and benefit from. Your benefit is our gain.
