Sponsor CLEAR Marathon Cambodia

Sponsorship at CLEAR is designed as premium brand visibility with a clear governance posture. The event scales unrestricted funding for APOPO Minefields to Rice Fields and agroforestry based land transition programmes, and allocates ten percent of net unrestricted surplus to a ring fenced tourism development contribution for the City of Siem Reap.

Why sponsors choose CLEAR

High visibility Start and finish concentration, on course exposure, and strong media capture
Professional delivery Outsourced operators protect production quality and runner experience
Clear impact story CLEAR maps from clearance to resilient livelihoods with a simple narrative
Governance controls Capped prize envelope, no advance distributions, post event release rules
Sponsorship packages can be paired with corporate participation and VIP hospitality depending on tier. Inventory is limited to protect quality and avoid sponsor dilution.

What sponsorship funds

Sponsorship supports race delivery standards and expands net unrestricted surplus that funds Minefields to Rice Fields and agroforestry transition. It also increases the ring fenced tourism development contribution to Siem Reap by increasing net surplus.

Race production quality Course marking, staff, timing, medical posture, and finish zone delivery to professional standards
Participant scale Marketing reach, corporate participation, and conversion that drives volume and net surplus
Impact visibility Public communication that makes the CLEAR pathway understandable and credible
