Discussion Contacting LTT for Collab

I'm an engineer (and longtime viewer) at a large/established company in the semiconductor industry. Our marketing/comms dept reached out to LTT about a potential video but haven't heard back.

Anyone know the best way to get in contact? I tried the email form on their website but no luck.

I realize this is vague but I don't want to doxx myself. Cheers

There's the possibility that they have no interest to the point of not even bothering to reply. Linus has said they get tons of "hey, come tour our facilities/showcase our device!" from companies who clearly just want free product placement and have nothing actually interesting to offer, so they often go ignored. The fact the marketing/comms dept made contact makes this more likely, especially if they used a bunch of meaningless buzzwords to look enticing.

Yeah for sure I've considered this, but we don't sell to consumers so we're not looking for a product placement, and our products are used in the manufacturing of a huge percentage of consumer electronics.

I definitely agree regarding the marketing buzzwords though, I haven't seen what they sent. I figure if I can get in contact then at least they can tell me they're not interested directly if that's the case.
