Backers	Who are they?	Why should they make the contribution?	What do we offer to them in exchange for their contributions?	How do they deliver their contribution?
Strategic backers	British council	The British council’s mission is to build connections between international communities and the UK, similar to our mission for bridging the language academic gap between rural and urban communities in Vietnam.	Because our end goal is for rural students who take our English course to attain IELTS level proficiency, the British Council can be our sole provider of IELTS exams that our students will take at the end of our course.	The British Council can fund financial aid programs for rural students who meet the qualification of completing our courses or waive testing fees for students who excel in our English courses. Additionally, the British Council can provide university/career consultancy for rural students who receive exceptional IELTS scores.
Partners	Arena multimedia & Ispace	Arena multimedia can create a hybrid lesson model with GLOCAL IELTS where our students can learn English and graphic design at their centers.	Arena multimedia will gain more students in their courses should they become our partners. Additionally, Arena multimedia and GLOCAL IELTS will be able to create new, attractive courses for students of both centers.	Arena multimedia will provide our current English students with graphic design lessons where our students can develop their English skills through graphic design lessons.
Strategic backers	Local investors	We provide investors in the Daknong area the opportunity to open English franchises using our curriculum model.	We offer local investors the framework to open English franchises in the Daknong area.

Long-term backers	Local communities	Local communities in the Daknong area would want their youth to have more financial opportunities and career options with a good working English knowledge.
