Sponsorship Application Decisions

Hi all,

Thank you so much for working with your campus clubs and teams to put together your sponsorship application pitches. SO many of you are working on such amazing, technical projects that DigiKey admires and finds valuable.

Unfortunately, we can’t sponsor every club and team on every campus. As much as we agree with your vision and wish we could offer our assistance, we have to make selections based on the budget we have available.

In the Sponsorship Application Board in Monday, decisions have been posted. If your request has not been selected, you’ll see a status of “declined”. If your request has been approved, you’ll see a status of “Active”. There are a very small handful of projects we are still reviewing, those requests will have a status of “In Review” and updates on those will go out soon.

If you were a mediator for a club or team on your campus for the request, please extend our thanks and apologies if we were not able to support the group. If you’d like me to contact the group directly to provide our decision, please let me know and I’d be happy to facilitate that conversation. If you are sharing the decision yourself, below is messaging you can use if you’d like:

Hi [club/team/group],
Thank you for working with me to apply for a sponsorship from DigiKey. They have reviewed your application and informed me that unfortunately at this time, they are unable to provide the sponsorship. They encourage you to apply again in the future, and wish you and the team great success on your project.

If you’d like to provide my contact information to them, you can do so.

Our next sponsorship application window will be in January.

If you have any questions, please let me know.
