Corporate Partnerships

The ADPA Corporate Partner Program provides organizations with meaningful access to zoo, aquarium, and related institutional dive professionals and administrators. Many ADPA members serve as key decision-makers with final authority over the selection of dive equipment, operational supplies, and a broad range of products, services, and contractors that support institutional dive programs.

ADPA represents a significant market for diving products and provides opportunities to generate positive media impressions and increase brand visibility, particularly through engagement with public-facing institutions that welcome millions of visitors each year. ADPA institutional dive programs regularly receive local, national, and international exposure through print, television, and social media.

Through this partnership, organizations can benefit from both equipment and product sales, as well as the public exposure afforded by aquariums, zoos, and other related institutions. Corporate Partners may include vendors, industry suppliers, and other relevant companies or donors. Partnerships are offered on a first-come, first-served basis and run from July 1 through June 30 each year.
