9/5/2019 FOREIGN PRESS ASSOCIATION Mail - BAYER-Foreign Press Association: next steps Thanos Dimadis <[email protected]> BAYER-Foreign Press Association: next steps 2 messages Thanos Dimadis <[email protected]> Thu, Sep 6, 2018 at 12:52 AM To: Christopher Loder <[email protected]>, [email protected] Chris: thank you for lunch today and for taking the time to meet. It's always nice to spend a great time with you, and I always enjoy our conversation. Thank you also for introducing me to Dan. Dan, it was a pleasure to meet you, and I am very excited about started working closely together on developing some great initiatives through the vehicle of the Foreign Press Association. As an immediate start and following up to our conversation let's focus on the two most immediate thing which is the Centennial Gala on November 8th at 7 World Trade Center (from 6.30 pm until 11 pm). The major supporters that will present their own corporation's major Scholarship Award are Microsoft and UnitedHealth Group with $50.000. Skybridge Capital of Scaramucci, CBS News, Procter & Gamble and Barilla Foundation are in the second category of the $25.000. Chris: following to our conversation what I want to please you kindly is if Ray approves that BAYER will be the number one supporter of the Foreign Press Association and Scholarship Awards above Microsoft and United Health Group. So far I have considered you in the level of the last year ($25.000). It will be an essential and valuable help to us to increase the level of the financial support to our scholars if BAYER becomes the Platinum supporter of the Foreign Press Scholarships on November 8th and also of the Centennial Drink Reception that will follow up in December (and we can combine it with a pre-Xmas party). For this to happen, it'd be important if BAYER can increase the level of its annual sponsorship from $25.000 to $70.000. If Ray and you want to approve this increase of $45.000 in the annual sponsorship (the 70% of this increase will go to increase the level of the financial support and other 30% for the costs related to the training of the scholars), I will be able to get all the boards agreed that BAYER would be above and before all other corporations presenting the number one scholarship award (BAYER Foreign Press Scholarship Award). You will be recognized as the major sponsor of the Centennial Gala, and at the same time, I will make sure Ray or you will give a speech on a broader media topic related to the foreign press and BAYER's investment in the future of the Foreign Press. In that major level, from the 150 VIP tickets, I will provide you at least 30-40 tickets to invite the list of all prominent journalists that you want to keep them engaged with BAYER, and I will also help you sort out the invitations and who are the right people to provide them tickets. I will also provide you access to all Knight Bagehot Fellows of all past 5 years (see here their profile), they are young and successful and I believe that having BAYER co-chairing the Centennial Gala will be a unique opportunity for BAYER's team to engage with them. In that level of support, you will be the major sponsor of the Centennial Drinks Reception that will follow up in December (we will figure out together the date) following the Centennial Gala on November 8th. Among the confirmed speakers so far Fareed Zakaria, Alison Smale from the United Nations, Lally Weymouth from Washington Post, and we expect some confirmations from CBS News and Wall Street Journal. I believe by working from now with Dan until November we can achieve some great success around this landmark event and if Bayer decides to go for the major sponsorship, it would help me justify to the board members and to other sponsors with Bayer will be above all other levels. Will you be able to confer with Ray today and let me know what the final decision will be? It will take off a lot of stress from my shoulders if we get approval for this from Ray and I guarantee you it will be tremendously successful both the Centennial Gala and the Centennial Drinks reception that will follow for those who were not able to attend the Gala because of the prices tickets and the costs. Below is also a list of foreign correspondents that we can select together who make sense for you to include as your guests given that will be a major supporter of the international press. Feel free to take a look. This is only a part of the list (300 plus names). The total list exceeds the 700 credentialed journalists we have access. I look forward to hearing from you!
