RichTech Forum Sponsorships
The Forums have established themselves as a premier benefit for members looking to learn and network in smaller, more exclusive meetings defined by peer group or topic. You will have one signature sponsorship but your recognition will last for a full year from when you make the commitment. For most forums, you will have the opportunity to welcome the attendees and introduce your company for one minute. In some cases you will be asked to leave following your introduction depending on the structure of the forum you are sponsoring. See the Forums page for details on each group.
