Emirates or Barclays would only gain something from a collaboration with the IRL if it also had a link to markets outside the the US so it could maximise it's exposure in both directions and build on the concept of 'across borders influence'.
Emirates for example has a strong interest in Australia as a market. Barclays in England. Unless TG was willing to extend himself to cross borders influence there would be little value in a foreign compnay sponsoring something that sees itself entirely in a North American context.
