The Communications and Marketing Team are delighted to welcome you to the Bayes Centre. Our aims are to support and amplify your messages and goals and so if we can be of any assistance then please reach out to us at bayes-communications@ed.ac.uk and we will be happy to work with you. 

Website

Members and Partners have an entry in the Bayes Centre community pages and we ask you to provide some basic information for our site. 

• A high quality logo (vector artwork if possible)
• A Short ‘about us’ description
• Your web address
• Social media account links

Welcome

We would like to publicly welcome you to the Bayes Centre and in order to do so we will look to create a news article for our website and accompanying social media posts. These will be posted on the Bayes Centre's LinkedIn page. In general companies prefer to write their own introduction and so we ask that you provide a story up to 500 words and with an accompanying photo. 

We generally suggest this story focus on who you are, where you have come from, what problem you seek to solve, your vision, challenges and goals and how others may be able to work with you, but you are free to write the news story as you prefer. 

Mailing lists

We need to add you to a number of mailing lists, to ensure that you receive important information and news from the Bayes Centre. Please ensure that the Bayes Centre's reception team have a note of all emails that should be added to these lists by emailing bayes.reception@ed.ac.uk.

Announcements and ongoing messaging

We are happy to share your major announcements or news. Please send the information to bayes-communications@ed.ac.uk and we can either make or share posts.  You can also tag us on LinkedIn and Twitter and we’ll share your posts.  We’re also happy to share your events, so please keep us informed and these can be posted on social media, promoted to our community and added to our website. 

Reception Area

We invite you to submit a slide for our electronic screens, to be displayed in the Bayes Centre atrium. This is a chance to either promote your company, or to talk about your current news. This can be changed on a monthly basis and a reminder will be sent when you are able to make the change. 

We require an image in the following format:

• 16 by 9 dimensions.
• PNG or PDF images  (1920 pixels X 1080 pixels)
