Support Local Businesses

Your support increases access for local businesses and showcases your commitment to fostering prosperity.

 As a sponsor, your financial support makes training more accessible. You may also help promote the event to your network.  


 We'll make it easy by providing marketing support featuring your name and logo as a sponsor!  


 We collect participant fees through a registration page that features your name and logo. 


Sponsorship Benefits

  • Visibility: Your name and logo will shine on our marketing materials, training website, registration page, and during the event, highlighting your role as a community leader.
  • VIP Perks: Receive two VIP passes (good for free admission). You may use the passes or share with key stakeholders or others. ($490 - $690 value* depending on the event you are supporting)
  • Share Savings: Receive a discount code (vouchers) to offer your businesses, showcasing your value to them. They may use the code for significant savings on their admission. ($3,000+ value*)

Impact Appreciation Gift

While the local hosting organization is primarily responsible for promoting the event, as a sponsor you are welcome to help spread the word! When 10 or more of your** businesses (including VIP pass users) register, you’ll receive a premium impact appreciation gift—your choice of a Bose SoundLink Flex Bluetooth speaker, oversized travel rocking chair, Samsung tablet, or Texas Roadhouse gift card.  See appreciation gifts and criteria and exclusions noted below.

 Gift Criteria and Exclusions: 


* VIP passes and discount vouchers have no cash value and cannot be redeemed for cash or any other form of payment. They are valid only for the specified training event registration and provide a $330 discount per voucher.

** To qualify for the impact appreciation gift, the "10 or more" registered businesses must be "your" businesses.  For example, chamber, club, or association members for chambers, clubs or industry association sponsors; existing clients for sponsors like banks, consultancies, accounting firms, or SBDC offices, etc; or businesses within the jurisdiction of economic development organization sponsors (e.g., state, county, city). Those registering with a VIP pass or discount code do count toward the 10 registrations required for the impact appreciation gift.  One individual registration may be counted by multiple sponsors (i.e. a chamber member who is also an SBDC client).


In order to be a sponsor, simply have your local event host confirm that you are sponsoring at least two weeks in advance of the event.
