As a charity, we exist on the generosity of our donors – corporate, individuals, or trusts and foundations. We know that the commitment of our supporters stems from the strength of their ideas and we strive to keep all of our donors as involved as possible.
Policy Exchange values the intellectual and practical contributions that businesses bring to the broader policy discussion. Such dynamic interaction fosters a more informed and effective policy-making process, ultimately leading to solutions that are both innovative and grounded in empirical experience.
There are three main ways for businesses to partner with Policy Exchange:
Business Forum
Research
Events
Our policy units value the opinions of businesses and welcome the opportunity to discuss policy in the light of their research programmes. We regard the input of businesses as a vital part of many of our events, be they public – such as our high-level panels at the Party Conferences – or private forums.
See more information on the Policy Exchange Business Forum below.

The Policy Exchange Business Forum, launched in 2003 and re-launched in 2019, aims to create a hub for innovative thinking on key areas of social and economic policy. The unparalleled convening power of Policy Exchange makes membership of our Business Forum vital for government relations teams from a large variety of sectors.
The Forum provides a space for political and policymaking insights and brings a host of other benefits including monthly breakfast or lunch briefings, invitations to our events and receptions including our annual Summer Party, research briefings across more than eleven different policy areas, the opportunity to partner with individual research units

We are extremely proud of our independence. As an educational charity, we welcome financial support for our work but do not accept commissions or any government funding. Our senior management and dedicated Heads of Unit decide which policy projects to pursue, and we always retains full editorial control over all of our research and other output.
I have really appreciated all the policy insights I have had from Policy Exchange. In particular, when it comes to health, all the work you have done on reducing waiting lists and building new hospitals. I think you are leading the debate in Westminster.
