Acadia’s Corporate Sponsorships (Canada)
As part of Acadia’s mission to improve health and well-being of rare neurological disorders, the company may provide financial support for independent third-party organizations. We hope the following helps provide guidance to decide whether it is appropriate to seek support and, if so, how to go about it.
Acadia seeks to support organizations and programs that help people living with rare neurological disorders and those who care for them that align with our therapeutic areas of focus and mission. For this reason, the company has a strong preference for programs that directly support education and care.
Corporate Sponsorship activities are promotional in nature and must only support events and activities in which Acadia can reasonably promote disease awareness or education. Examples of sponsorship support include a disease awareness or education exhibit booth, corporate advertising or marketing opportunities, corporate logo recognition, medical or healthcare association memberships, etc. All support requests must fall within fair market value. Sponsorships cannot support independent continuing medical education and cannot support events or organizations that will use the funds or in-kind contribution to discuss or promote any drug treatment or other pharmaceutical product to patients or the general public. All requests for sponsorships will be reviewed by Acadia’s internal review committee to ensure compliance.
Sponsorship requests must include:
- A brief overview of the request on organizational letterhead and includes: a description and purpose of the overall program or event, the program title, the intended audience (e.g., patients, caregivers, professional services staff, clinical professionals, etc.), a list of all invited sponsors, objectives and expected outcomes.
- All requests must clearly identify the tangible benefit offered to Acadia and the value of the tangible benefit must be reasonable and generally consistent with norms for comparable events or benefits.
- Supporting documents.
