Overview Overview

Types of support
Commercial Sponsorship is defined as the purchase of (usually) intangible exploitable potential rights and benefits associated with an event, entrant or organisation which results in tangible benefits (increased brand awareness, communication or key messages or sales) for the sponsor.
A Commercial Sponsorship does NOT include the following:

• Grants, which are defined as a sum of money provided to an organisation for a specific purpose.
 

For policies pertaining to donations and grants, a proposal should be submitted to Holden's Corporate Affairs Department via online Holden Community Support Application procedure.
