AFFI-CON is four days packed with networking, business meetings and education sessions.
Sponsoring at AFFI-CON is part of AFFI’s larger, year-round Membership Marketing Program. It is a great way to build brand awareness and highlight your company at AFFI’s largest event of the year and can also help companies secure VIP meeting space. All requests for business meeting space at AFFI-CON are determined through a priority points system that gives first priority to companies that sponsor with AFFI.
Networking opportunities are abundant with the conference’s large and diverse audience and AFFI will work with you to explain the sponsorship options available and then work with you to tailor a package to meet your company’s budgetary and marketing needs.
There are still sponsorship and advertising opportunities for AFFI-CON 2023 available. You can view advertising opportunities below and can contact AFFI’s Senior Director of Marketing and Business Development, Brian Peteritas, at bpeteritas@affi.com to discuss sponsorship opportunities that are still open.
