**TLDR;** We are expanding our sponsorship programme to specifically support university lecturers and academic staff. If you are leading an electronics course or a research lab in Europe, we offer individual PCB sponsoring starting from **€500** , supplemented by student vouchers and dedicated collaborative tools.

## Empowering the Next Generation of Engineers

At AISLER, we believe that access to professional-grade hardware is essential for high-quality engineering education. To support this, we have tailored a sponsorship package for lecturers that mirrors our successful student programme but scales to the needs of entire departments and research groups.

## What’s included?

**Individual Project Funding**  
We provide a sponsoring budget starting at **€500** per semester/project. This budget is dedicated to [Beautiful Boards](https://aisler.net/en/products/boards) (bare PCB production) to ensure your prototypes and lab equipment are manufactured to industrial standards in Germany.

**Vouchers**  
To encourage independent learning, we provide individual **AISLER coupon codes** for your students and team members. This allows them to order their own designs for coursework or personal projects.

**Business Account Features**  
University institutes and research labs are treated as business accounts. This unlocks [Smart Teams](https://community.aisler.net/t/smart-teams-the-collaboration-tool-for-businesses-and-organizations/709) for collaboration.

## Collaborative Requirements (The “Give Back”)

To maintain a sustainable partnership and foster knowledge sharing within the **Creative Community** , sponsored teams post at least once per sponsorship in our community. Decide if you want to share a best practice, or a presentation of your project:

### Best Practices Posting

Share an in-depth guide in our **Deep Dives** or **Circuit App notes** category. This could cover topics like “Optimising Layouts” or “Robust Input Filters for Lab Power Supplies”, for example.

### Project Presentation

Or post a showcase article detailing a specific project achieved with the sponsored hardware.

### The Logo

To qualify for the integrated sponsorship discounts, all sponsored boards must feature the AISLER logo. We recommend our [placeholder method](https://community.aisler.net/t/adding-our-logo-to-your-pcb/5382/1) to avoid any issues. By request, we can send you a logo as .svg or .png

## Logistics and Compliance

All boards are **Made in Europe** , ensuring short lead times and no customs complications within the EU. Furthermore, all products and processes are [RoHS and REACH compliant](https://community.aisler.net/t/rohs-reach-compliance/85), meeting the safety and environmental standards required for academic environments.

## How to Apply

Are you ready to upgrade your prototyping capabilities? Contact us at [developer-relations@aisler.net](mailto:developer-relations@aisler.net) with a brief overview of your course or research project. We will then plan your individual sponsoring budget.
