Partnership Programme

Access the leaders shaping how organisations learn.

CLO100 partners with a small number of organisations each year to create trusted, insight-led engagement with senior learning leaders.

We are not a vendor marketplace. We are a curated conversation for brands that want to matter in the right rooms.

01

Senior, L&D audience

Engage with established learning leaders who influence organisational strategy, investment and change.

02

Curated, year-round engagement

Build familiarity and trust through considered touchpoints rather than relying on a single campaign.

03

Credible market presence

Position your organisation in the right conversations with senior L&D decision-makers through thoughtful, high-value partnership engagement.

04

Selective annual relationships

CLO100 works with a limited number of organisations, protecting the quality and credibility of every partnership.

How We Work

Built on trust,
not volume.

Each year, CLO100 works with a handful of partners who share our belief that relevance beats noise.

We design every touchpoint around genuine engagement: conversations that senior leaders want to join, content they want to read, and relationships that outlast a single campaign.

Promotion is never the goal. The goal is presence with purpose.

The CLO100 Approach

Meaningful engagement at every stage.

Partnership activity is designed to contribute to the community, create useful dialogue and establish your organisation as a credible voice.

01

Listen

Understand the priorities, challenges and changing expectations of senior learning leaders.

02

Contribute

Bring relevant expertise, research and practical insight into conversations that matter.

03

Connect

04

Grow

Develop familiarity and credibility through consistent, year-round engagement.

Who It Is For

Brands that want a credible place in the conversation.

CLO100 is suited to organisations that value trusted access over broad reach.

You might be a learning technology provider, a consultancy, or a service brand looking to build relationships with senior decision-makers in learning and development.

01

You want to influence, not interrupt.

Your organisation values useful engagement over intrusive sales messaging.

02

You believe insight earns attention.

You are prepared to contribute expertise and ideas that genuinely serve the learning community.

03

You move at the speed of trust.

You understand that strong commercial relationships are built through credibility, consistency and time.
