新製品に関するアンケートにご協力いただき、ありがとうございます。
Thank you for your cooperation with the survey regarding our new product.
Imagine you are writing a serious report. You would use this word. It sounds official. It is for important topics. Like a formal document.
This is different from 〜に関して. 〜に関する comes before a noun. It tells you what the noun is about. For example, 'report related to the environment'. 〜に関して comes before a verb or sentence. It tells you what the verb or sentence is about. For example, 'talk about the environment'. 〜に関する is also more formal than 〜についての.
Don't use this when you want to end a sentence. For example, you cannot say "That is related to." You need a noun after it.
