Delaware Launches Expanded Business Engagement Initiative

Blue Hens,

Over the past year and a half, I have had the pleasure of connecting with over a hundred business leaders and community members throughout the state of Delaware. I wanted to take time to learn how we can win together through mutually beneficial relationships and partnerships. Throughout this listening tour, the central themes to every conversation has been how do we unify, how do we elevate and how do we win together.

Having one area code - 302 - that represents our entire state is our superpower! That is why we are launching our Business Engagement initiative within Delaware Athletics, Community and Campus Recreation. With the launch of this new program, we will work together to strengthen our existing partnerships throughout the state and develop new meaningful relationships and opportunities.

Here's a few ways that we have and can connect with your business or organization:

Creating experiences for your employees or clients
- All inclusive gameday experience packages including tailgate, tickets, parking and food
- Host a meeting or staff retreat at one of our new facilities
- Team building activities at our outdoor pool, ice rinks or stadiums.
Career connections with our student-athletes
- Job shadowing, mentorships, internships or full time jobs
- Keep talented workforce in the state
- Career fairs and networking events
Promote your business
- Become an official partner of Delaware Athletics
- Student-athlete appearances at your business
- Social media partnerships
Partner with us in the community
- Join us for the 2nd annual 302 Tour this summer
- Partner on causes that are important to your company
Support us philanthropically
- Invest in the student athlete experience and have an impact on our programs successes on and off the field

Those are just a few of the ways that we can partner together. If you have other ideas or you want to learn more about these exciting opportunities, please feel free to reach out to me or connect with my colleague, Kate Rudolph, Associate AD, Business Engagement & Philanthropy or visit our website at https://bluehens.com/feature/BusinessEngagement. This newly created position was designed to give you an easy point of entry so your experience can be seamless, fun and productive.

Let's do this together for the 302!

Go Hens,

Chrissi
