BPIA welcomes opportunities to collaborate with members, organizations, institutions, and partners on programs that align with our mission and areas of work. To keep our programming strategic and manageable, all proposed events, partnerships, and projects must be submitted through BPIA’s formal review process.
Event & Program Proposals
Have an idea for an event, program, panel, workshop, or other BPIA activity? Submit an Event & Program Proposal outlining the concept, intended audience, proposed format, timeline, and how the program advances BPIA’s mission. Members proposing programs are generally expected to take an active role in planning and execution if the proposal is approved.
Partnership & Collaboration Requests
Organizations and institutions interested in partnering with BPIA should submit a Partnership & Collaboration Request. This includes proposed co-hosted programs, institutional partnerships, sponsorship opportunities, collaborative initiatives, and other opportunities to work with BPIA. Submission of a request does not constitute confirmation of a partnership or BPIA participation.
General Guidelines
BPIA reviews proposals and partnership requests on a monthly basis. Because our programming calendar and volunteer capacity are limited, we encourage requests to be submitted as early as possible and with a clear, focused concept.
When considering proposals, BPIA looks for alignment with our mission, two houses of work, and Four Pillars of Impact, as well as audience value, organizational capacity, timing, available resources, and clarity of roles.
Please keep in mind:
Submission does not guarantee approval or participation.
Requests should be submitted with sufficient lead time for review and planning.
BPIA generally prioritizes focused, actionable proposals over informal brainstorming requests.
Member-led proposals should identify who will lead and support implementation.
External partners should clearly identify the proposed role of BPIA and any requested commitments or resources.
Approved activities must follow BPIA branding, communications, financial, and program guidelines.
BPIA may recommend modifications, a different timeline, or connection with an existing BPIA program or team.
