Partner with vaeyc — Ongoing Education & EdTech Partnerships
Quick answer: A partnership with vaeyc is an ongoing, transparent relationship that can combine advertising, sponsored content, events and more to reach educators, schools and EdTech buyers over time. Partnerships suit organisations with sustained goals rather than a single placement. To explore one, request our media kit and tell us what you’re trying to achieve.
Key takeaways
- What it is: a longer-term, multi-format relationship, not a one-off ad.
- Who it suits: EdTech brands, publishers, trainers and education organisations.
- Always transparent: commercial elements are labelled; editorial stays independent.
- Flexible: mix advertising, content, newsletters and events.
- Start with a conversation: we scope partnerships around your goals.
What a partnership looks like
Where a single placement answers a short-term need, a partnership supports a longer campaign or an ongoing presence with our audience. It might combine regular advertising, a series of labelled sponsored articles, newsletter placements and event collaboration. The shape is yours to define with us — we build it around what you want to achieve and who you want to reach.

How we keep partnerships honest
A partnership never buys our editorial. Commercial elements are always labelled, and our independent coverage continues to be decided by our team regardless of any commercial relationship. We don’t sell undisclosed or disguised paid links, and we won’t blur the line between a partner’s message and our reporting. This is what keeps a partnership valuable to you: our audience trusts us, so association with us carries weight.
What we look for in a partner

- Respect for the editorial/commercial boundary.
- A clear goal we can help you meet.
How to start a partnership

Measuring success
We’ll agree up front what success looks like — reach, engagement, or a specific audience action — and report against it honestly. We share delivery data rather than inflated numbers, and we’d rather set realistic expectations than overpromise. If something isn’t working, we’ll say so and adjust.
