Why sponsor?

Disclosure
We must acknowledge that the event schedule may adjust due to unforeseen circumstances. If an event does not take place in the originally scheduled time frame, sponsorships will carry over to the new event date. In the case that an event does not take place it will be up to management’s discretion on what event to apply sponsorship to. As a sponsor, you will be updated as all changes are made. Event Sponsorship levels are written as in-person events. If the event(s) need to have a virtual aspect (all online or hybrid) an asterisk (*) marks what will be specifically affected.
