Founding Partners
Partnerships are limited and structured annually. One partner per category. The integrity of the Council is protected.
What You're Buying
How It Works
The RTP Executive AI Council exists because mid-market executives need a space where the only agenda is theirs. Protecting that space is the entire model. Your presence exists in materials and communications only.
Selling is off limits. Access to the room is off limits. Attendee visibility is off limits.
These are the rules that make the Council worth joining — and worth partnering with. The executives in the room trust it because these lines hold.
The Council
14 CEOs and senior executives at mid-market companies in the Research Triangle. The people making capital allocation decisions on AI. Quarterly working sessions under Chatham House Rule.
These are the decision-makers your firm wants in front of. The partnership puts your brand in their line of sight — through association, through materials, through the credibility of being selected as a founding partner.
Underwriting
Underwriting partners fund briefings, Council sessions, and Summit events. Your financial support keeps the room vendor-neutral. In return, you receive brand visibility and relationship access.
Underwrite a single briefing. Brand presence in session materials, pre- and post-session networking with attendees, acknowledgment in communications.
Three consecutive sessions. Deeper visibility and relationship continuity with returning attendees. Category exclusivity for the quarter.
Full-year partnership across all briefings and Council sessions. Named partner status. First right of refusal for Year 2. One partner per category.
Premier sponsorship of the Executive AI Summit. Custom package. Limited to two partners. The highest-visibility opportunity in the portfolio.

Founding partner conversations are direct. I'll walk you through the Council model, who's in the room, and what the partnership looks like in practice. If it's the right fit, we move forward. If it's the wrong category or wrong timing, I'll say so.
