Trade Agency Partner Terms
For AWEX, FIT, hub.brussels and their equivalents: how the Club works alongside a trade agency.
Last updated — September 24, 2026
1. Who these terms are for
These terms apply to a regional or national trade and investment agency that works with the Club on the ground.
They take effect when you complete the partner form on the Club's website, accept these terms and sign. Ticking the box and typing your name is your signature, and it binds the company you name as much as a signature on paper would.
Nothing here replaces the Membership Terms. A partner is not a member, and holds no member entitlement unless the Club admits it as one separately.
2. Working together
The Club may act as a local point of contact for companies your agency sends to Nevada, and your agency may point companies to the Club. Neither of us is obliged to refer anyone.
Neither of us pays the other, and no commission, finder's fee or success fee is due on any business that follows from an introduction.
The Club holds no mandate to represent your agency, to negotiate for it, or to speak in its name. Where the Club describes the relationship, it describes it as a partnership between independent organisations.
3. Companies and their data
Where your agency shares the details of a company or of a person, the Club uses them for the introduction they were shared for and for nothing else. They are not added to the Club's marketing lists, and they are not passed to a third party.
Both of us handle those details under applicable data protection law, including the General Data Protection Regulation where the person is in the European Economic Area. Either of us may ask the other to delete what it shared, and the other does so within thirty days.
4. Events
Where an event carries both names, the substance, the guest list and the announcement are agreed between us before publication.
The Club does not schedule an event in a way that competes with a fixture your agency already supports, and tells you as early as it can when a date risks a clash.
5. Names and logos
Each of us may use the other's name to describe the partnership factually, and neither of us may use the other's name or marks to suggest an endorsement of a product, a price or a third party.
The Club publishes your logo only once you have given permission in writing, and displays it according to any brand rules you supply. Until then the Club writes your name in plain text — and the Club's own database refuses to store a logo against a partnership that is not signed.
Either of us may withdraw that permission at any time, in writing. The Club removes the logo at its next publication of the site and in any event within seven days.
6. What this is not
This is not a contract for services, an agency, a partnership in the legal sense, a joint venture, or an employment relationship. Neither of us may commit the other to anything.
It is not exclusive. The Club may accept partners in the same sector, and you are free to support any other organisation.
The Club does not promise attendance numbers, business introduced, coverage, or any commercial outcome. What the Club promises is what this document says it gives, and nothing beyond it.
7. Term, and ending it
The partnership runs for twelve months from the date you sign, and renews for a further twelve months unless either of us says otherwise.
Either of us may end it at any time, in writing, without giving reasons. Your name comes off the partners page at the next publication of the site.
Ending the partnership does not undo an occasion already held, and does not entitle either of us to a refund or a payment, except where the section on fees says so.
8. Personal data, and the rest
The Club holds the details you give on the form to run the partnership, and handles them as set out in its Privacy Policy. Your signature record — the version of these terms, the name signed and the moment — is kept for as long as the partnership runs and for six years afterwards.
These terms are governed by the laws of the State of Nevada, and sit alongside the Terms of Use, the Code of Conduct and the Privacy Policy.
