Brand Partnerships Agency London

From identifying the right opportunities and negotiating sponsorship rights to activation, content and reporting, we connect brands with highly engaged audiences in the places and moments that matter.

Brand Partnership & Sponsorship Services

The right brand partnership can put you at the heart of culture, creating meaningful connections with audiences when they are at their most engaged. Finding the right opportunity, though, is only the beginning.

Equals helps brands identify, negotiate and activate partnerships across festivals, live events, venues, sport, entertainment and cultural experiences. We start with your audience and objectives, finding opportunities where your brand can add genuine value rather than simply add another logo.

From sponsorship negotiation and rights management to creative activation, production, staffing, sampling, hospitality and content, we can manage the partnership from first conversation through to live delivery.

We have activated partnerships for brands including Molson Coors, Moët Hennessy, ITSU, Tia Maria, 19 Crimes, KFC and Tropicana across high-engagement live environments.

How We Build Brand Partnerships

A single, experienced team helps you find the right opportunity, secure the right partnership and turn it into an experience that delivers for your audience and your brand.

01

Understand the audience and objective

We define who you need to reach, what the partnership should achieve and where your brand has the strongest relevance.

02

Find and negotiate the opportunity

We identify suitable partners, events and properties, then negotiate the rights, assets and opportunities needed to support the brief.

03

Bring the partnership to life

We turn the agreement into a live experience through creative, production, staffing, sampling, hospitality, content and on-site delivery.

04

Amplify and evaluate

We extend the partnership through content and media activity, then report on reach, engagement and the measures agreed at the outset.

Put Your Brand Where Your Audience Is

Festivals. Sport. Music. Hospitality. Entertainment. Culture. The strongest partnerships place brands in environments where audiences are already engaged, open to discovery and ready to participate. We help identify those opportunities, then create a role for your brand that feels relevant, memorable and worth talking about.
