Corporate and Strategic Partners

CoreNet Global's Corporate and Government Sector Partner Program: A Strategic Asset for Members, the Real Estate Industry and Our Association Current List of Corporate and Strategic Partners There are many benefits that define the value of CoreNet Global as the world's leading professional association for corporate real estate (CRE) executives, service providers and economic developers. One that truly stands out is the CoreNet Global Corporate and Government Sector Partner Program. The Partner program gives both members and the organization an added edge that separates us from many of the other groups serving the CRE industry and profession. Partners differentiate us by empowering our status as a CRE thought leader. Partner-investors afford CoreNet Global with a competitive advantage. In fact, our initiative has become very successful. One key reason is the power of our combination of the 92 major corporations currently enrolled as Partners at the Corporate, Government Sector and Strategic-Gold levels of our program. Proving its Counter-Cyclical Value Understandably, then, the program became our strongest growth category during the 2009 recession and has continued throughout 2010 with twenty-eight new partners and 2011 with thirteen new partners. It has also become an important touch point for increasing your value during this unprecedented period of economic challenge. Ultimately, our Partnership investments sustain and augment our biggest proprietary asset as a global network of professionals: the CRE industry's senior-most executives mostly from the demand side but also including the supply side. Education A Major Engagement Point for Senior Leaders Partnerships also result in more senior-level executives, their staffs and outsource strategic partners utilizing CoreNet Global networking, knowledge- and information-sharing channels that also differentiate us in the marketplace. These include: Shaping our research agenda and enabling research results through: The Executive Leaders Council Discovery Forums Other value like high-level access to our Knowledge Center Online Put simply, Partnerships represent a major engagement point for senior leaders, which is why the program has become a vital piece of CoreNet Global's overall growth opportunities. Partners increase participation levels across our global network, including more revenue for chapters That's because Partnerships bundle multiple membership within companies that translate directly into higher levels of involvement at local chapter programs and events Research Partnerships fund the industry-bending, leading-edge research that helps define our standing as a thought leader Similar investment models funded our break-through research for Corporate Real Estate 2010 and CRE 2000 Today, the Partner program, together with our Corporate Real Estate 2020 sponsors, is funding our largest-ever stream of corporate real estate research results delivered in a single year These current, extensive findings are helping to guide members on critical cost management strategies like portfolio consolidation and surplus space reduction strategies that are making an immediate difference to the bottom line of member enterprises Partnerships Complement Sponsorships Partnerships are not sponsorships and are most often funded from corporate allocations separate from marketing budgets. Our investors fund their Partnerships through global research and education budgets, not through local marketing dollars The result is that Partnership fundraising does not compete directly with sponsorship fund raising either at the local or global levels For all the reasons outlined above, they are complementary It all adds up to a big plus for our members and our organization. CoreNet Global Corporate and Strategic Partners represent our most important proprietary asset, which is why the industry's senior-most leaders convene around it, and then spread it across their staffs and outsourced providers.
