Partnership

Nine ways to build the ecosystem with us

Q: Can formats be combined?

Yes. Most often people combine a city with media, or a company with social projects.

Q: Do I need money at the start?

There is no lump-sum fee for a city partner. For companies the terms depend on the package and are discussed personally.

Q: How does a club leader differ from a city partner?

A club leader runs an online club on a topic, with no city attached. A city partner is responsible for everything offline in their region.

Q: What if my city is already taken?

We can suggest a neighbouring region, an online club on your topic, or a place in the queue for expansion.

A city, a company, a club, education, infrastructure, investment, government, a non-profit or a media outlet — the format differs, the principle is one: you bring a resource, the community returns access to people, knowledge and orders.

About the branch

What it gives you

What partnership with INFOCLUB gives

Whatever the format, a partner gets access to a living community of entrepreneurs, not to an advertising space.

Access to entrepreneursReal people with businesses and budgets, not followers. You see their requests, they see you.

AI matchingThe platform shows your offer to those who have a matching task right now.

Presence at eventsClubs in cities and online: talks, venues, joint formats.

A voice in the mediaArticles, interviews and podcasts in INFOCLUB.MEDIA, which publishes in several languages.

ReputationA partnership with the community reads differently from an ad: the members speak for you.

Joint projectsPartners work not only with us but with each other: products, events, initiatives.
