Dear TEquipment,

My name is Daniel Puratich, and I am an electrical member of the Waterloo Aerial Robotics Group (WARG). We are a student design team run at the University of Waterloo, and I am reaching out to you today in hopes that you would be interested in sponsoring our award-winning team!

We compete in the Unmanned Systems Canada UAV Competition and have a competition coming up this May where we will demonstrate our autonomous unmanned aircraft's effectiveness to industry professionals from across Canada. Throughout these projects, our goal is to design and develop a robust autonomous aircraft system, which can be modified for a variety of surveillance and object retrieval objectives. With the university opening back up, we are looking to take advantage of this opportunity to work with our team in an in-person environment, providing our students with a hands-on experience in building and operating a cutting-edge unmanned aircraft.

For the team to participate on a competitive level, as well as to provide a better educational experience for students in our team, we rely on the generosity of our sponsors. On behalf of WARG, I am inquiring as to whether TEquipment would be interested in aiding our cause.

By supporting our team for the 2022 year you will:

Build brand value and enhance your corporate image. By supporting us, you support students in a high-visibility area and integrate with the community, improving the perception of your organization.
Gain recruitment opportunities. Our team is home to some incredibly talented students, and through sponsoring us, you’re getting access to a pool of fresh talent.
Help shape a new generation of engineers. We do a lot of hands-on work here at UWARG, and in doing so, creates opportunities for students to experience all aspects of the engineering design process, and familiarize them with industry standards.
Receive recognition on our platforms. Your business will be gaining access to a network with a growing social media presence. On Instagram, we have seen a +142%increase in engagement since the beginning of December. All of our sponsors will be receiving a complementary organic post on either Instagram or LinkedIn as per individual preferences. On top of social media, apparel provided at any sponsorship level will be worn by members of the team in the workshop and around campus. We’re also more than happy to provide promotional photos of the team wearing the provided apparel upon request.
Garner our unwavering gratitude. We could not advance our passions and innovations within the unmanned aerial vehicle industry without the generosity of our sponsors. Ranked among the top 50 engineering school worldwide, the University of Waterloo is well known for the commitments and excellence of their engineering research programs. The support and indication of industry patrons such as yourself plays a vital role on driving innovative discoveries that are advancing knowledge and improving lives globally.

Sponsorships can take many forms, as can be seen on our Instagram and LinkedIn. In specific, we are interested in the impressive suite of soldering equipment that TEquipment offers. We have recently ordered a few custom designed PCBs that we will be assembling in our bay in the near future and are looking to upgrade our soldering equipment to make the process as smooth as possible.

We invite TEquipment to connect with the community and join us as a sponsor to support University of Waterloo’s Aerial Robotics Group.

Please let us know if you may be interested in setting up an online meeting with our team members to discuss any questions or concerns. We would love to tell you more about our projects and coordinate future collaborations! Thank you for your time and consideration. We look forward to hearing from you soon.

Sincerely,
