Partnerships

Active Design Review considers a limited range of collaborations connected to product design and design literacy. A partnership must be useful to readers and clearly distinct from independent editorial coverage.

Possible collaborations

We consider clearly scoped educational projects, design-focused events or resources, and relevant partner placements. A proposal should explain the subject, intended audience, format, timing and the organisation's role. We do not accept arrangements that require favourable editorial conclusions or control over independent coverage.

How partner material is labelled

Paid placements and partner-supported material are identified plainly where readers encounter them. Labels explain the commercial relationship, and partner content remains distinguishable from independent editorial work. A placement does not imply endorsement of every product, claim or service associated with a partner.

Send a proposal

Use the Contact page and choose the partnership option. Include a concise description of the idea and any relevant commercial context. We review proposals for fit and clarity; sending one does not imply acceptance or a commitment to publish.
