PARTNERSHIPS
To develop student skills through this unique hands-on experience, Cal Poly Racing requires the generous support of industry partners.
Our designs are evaluated at competitions for performance, innovation, and market potential. To excel in these categories, Cal Poly Racing has become more than just a team of engineers. We operate like a business, bringing together students from many disciplines to develop engineering, project management, finance, and marketing skills. This makes our members assets to the workforce from day one.
We seek to build mutually beneficial relationships with our partners, who support us by contributing materials, knowledge, or services. In return, we offer partners increased brand recognition and networking opportunities with our talented student members.
CONTRIBUTION OPTIONS
Corporations, small businesses, and individuals can all make meaningful contributions to our efforts. All donations are tax-deductible.
Equipment and Service Donations: Due to our extensive in-house production, we have a great need for new and used machine shop equipment and tools. In addition, we require services such as advanced machining, powder coating, and heat treating.
Technical Insight: We utilize technical insight to help improve the design, manufacturing, and testing of our vehicles. As students, we value the learning experience that being part of a racing team provides, and greatly appreciate partners who choose to share their knowledge with us.
Monetary Support: We accept monetary donations. Contributions can be targeted to a specific team purchase or general use.
