Six foot long table, two chairs and standard electrical access to be provided to all exhibitor organizations.

  • MARKETING MATERIAL DISTRIBUTION

    At each group meeting there will be a tabletop within the speaking auditorium that will be designated for sponsors and partner organizations to display marketing materials and promotional items for attendees. Presenting Sponsors will have the opportunity to contribute literature to display at this station.

  • PROMINENT LOGO DISPLAY

    Presenting Sponsor logos will be included on a dedicated landing page on the Blackmagic Collective website as well as group mailings like the monthly newsletter and group announcements.

Being a Presenting Sponsor doesn’t mean you are supporting yet another user group. It means you care about education, and have an interest in accessing up and coming talent throughout the industry.

It will be a special event each month, one you will want to be a part of.

So how much does this all cost? $8,500 a year. Everybody pays the same, no special deals. There will only be 10 Presenting Sponsors, ensuring your company gets the attention they deserve.
