Becoming a partner of the Citadelle de Besançon means associating your image with that of a prestigious, internationally protected site, and supporting meaningful projects.

.

There are many ways of working alongside us:

  • Site animation and events
  • Residents take ownership of the Citadelle
  • Heritage interpretation
  • Heritage study, conservation and restoration
  • Site development and enhancement

There are many possible ways of supporting La Citadelle's projects: partnership, event sponsorship, patronage, etc. Together, we define those that best suit our corporate partners.
Sponsorship is available to everyone, small, medium and large companies alike. We offer tailor-made sponsorship, in line with their identity, culture, size and objectives.

Three types of sponsorship :

  • Financial sponsorship: this is the traditional form of sponsorship, most commonly used by companies of all sizes, and involves making a cash contribution to a project of general interest.
  • In-kind sponsorship: this type of sponsorship involves donating or making available goods or products free of charge to one of the projects the company wishes to support.
  • Sponsorship of skills: a company with expertise that could be useful to one of the projects makes one or more employees available to the supported project during their working hours. This is an excellent way for teams to develop their skills and sense of belonging to the company.

A tax incentive scheme

Under article 238 bis of the French General Tax Code, 60% of the amount of the donation made in cash, in kind or in skills (up to 0.5% of sales excluding VAT) can be deducted from corporate income tax.

Rewards are governed by law. Their value may not exceed 25% of the value of the donation. In this way, 85% of the value of the donation can be returned to the company in the form of various benefits.
