Strategic partners
Universities, NHS organisations, charities and other societies that want to work with ASTI over the longer term — on education, research, shared events or joint initiatives.
Partnerships
Partner with ASTI
We are actively looking for strategic partners, sponsors for our events and sponsors for our mailing lists. ASTI works with universities, NHS organisations, charities, other societies and industry. Any support received is documented and disclosed, and it does not influence the Association's independent positions.
What we are looking for
Ways to work with ASTI
There are three main routes to supporting the Association. If your organisation fits none of these exactly, we would still like to hear from you.
Event sponsors
Organisations interested in sponsoring ASTI events, workshops and The Surgeon Tech Roadshow. Sponsorship is disclosed on the event listing and does not influence the programme or speakers.
Mailing list sponsors
Sponsors for ASTI's newsletter and mailing list, reaching a multidisciplinary audience of surgeons and professionals working in surgical technology. Sponsored items are always clearly labelled.
ASTI-badged events
ASTI will also badge suitable events run by other organisations, such as courses, meetings and webinars on surgical technology and innovation. Badging shows the event has been reviewed against our education and transparency standards; it is not an endorsement of any product or company.
Principles
How we work with others
Independence
The Association's educational content, opinions and priorities are set by its members and Council. Support does not confer editorial control.
Transparency
Any financial or in-kind support is disclosed on the relevant page, event listing or publication.
No endorsement
Listing an organisation or technology is never an endorsement, recommendation or assurance of safety, performance or regulatory status.
Proportionality
Arrangements are documented, time-limited and reviewed by Council, with conflicts of interest recorded in the register.
Current listings
Supporters and collaborators
Placeholder entries are shown where a category exists but no organisation has yet been confirmed. No partnership, sponsorship or endorsement should be inferred from a placeholder.
Enquire about working with ASTI
Whether you are interested in a strategic partnership, sponsoring an event, workshop or The Surgeon Tech Roadshow, or sponsoring our newsletter and mailing list, we would like to hear from you. Tell us which route interests you and we will send you the current details. All enquiries are reviewed against the Association's conflicts of interest policy before any arrangement is agreed.
