We Build Partners Out of Suppliers

Commercial Partnerships provide increased value beyond simple purchasing agreements by leveraging our consolidated spending power across all campuses, plus our athletic, academic, and research strengths and other marketing assets to develop expanded and coordinated opportunities for both the University and its commercial partners. Commercial partners are generally University suppliers and service providers whose affiliations with the University may help to expand their retail or B2B markets.
