Partnering with Apprentice Nation
Brand partners power Apprentice Nation. They sponsor exclusive gigs, cutting edge curriculum, unique employment opportunities and connect youth across the UK – changing the lives of thousands of young people every year, and forging deep connections with some of the hottest music artists around, including Ghetts, RAYE, Krept & Konan, Ray BLK and Cat Burns.
“With See the Show Shape Your Future, Apprentice Nation created a campaign that spoke to a very specific and historically underrepresented audience, at a time when they needed it most. We leveraged the power of music to deliver a message that tapped into the heart of youth culture, earning their trust and loyalty. The impact was undeniable.” – Pete Jeavons, Group Brand Director, BT

Demonstrating brand & purpose: Skills fest
Apprentice Nation Skills Fest events include bespoke packages of practical workshops, mentoring from industry leaders and immersive skills challenges. Supported and amplified by a top UK artist performance and Q&A.
“What’s an idea worth? Pretty much nothing, unless you actually do something with it. That’s the difference between the dreamers and the doers.
The dream? A gig inside an operational Amazon FC with an artist who’s authentic, relevant and connects with young people.
The delivery? Spotless.” – Stuart Jackson International Corporate Communications Director, Amazon

Bring your employees to the stage
Apprentice Nation connects your employees with opportunities to both inspire and be inspired by young people. Facilitating opportunities to be a mentor, work experience days, “day in the life” profiles or deliver bursary programmes. We’ve seen first-hand the impact on employee engagement and the developmental ripple effect on them being able to shape the future of youth in the UK.
“The ’Shape your Future’ campaign with Apprentice Nation was incredibly successful for SBF GB&I. Not only did we recruit two fantastic young people into the business, we also found that more than 70% of the marketing department directly got involved in the project, changing perceptions around recruitment and making it a great learning experience from both sides” – Matt Riches, Head of Partnerships, Suntory Beverage & Food GB&I
