Ecosystem Partners

For organisations that strengthen the ecosystem by being in it.

Some organisations don't fit standard membership - not because they don't belong, but because their relationship with Manchester Digital is different in nature. Councils, combined authorities, LEPs, government bodies, universities and other anchor institutions can become Ecosystem Partners.

Ecosystem Partners get a distinct presence on the Who We Work With page - a badge and a listing that sits outside the member directory. Some pay for this. Some are invited in because their association adds value to the whole ecosystem. Either way, it's a relationship that Manchester Digital manages at its discretion.

If you think your organisation should be an Ecosystem Partner, get in touch.
