Who Should Consider Sponsorship?
The event organizers are planning a conference that addresses the need for increasing the bottom line by investing in green practices.
Companies and organizations who consider themselves to be leaders in providing green products and services to the hospitality industry would benefit from sponsorship.
- Companies who decide to invest in this conference will be strongly motivated to take or maintain leadership in this rapidly evolving sector.
- They will inevitably be organizations who are thinking out of the box and are positioning themselves to supply products, tools, and services to the hospitality industry.
- Or, they may be newer companies with new ideas and products who are seeking to find and collaborate with leaders in the green hospitality field.
Benefits of Sponsorship
The primary reason for becoming a sponsor of the Second Annual Green Lodging and Hospitality Conference is the opportunity to network with hotels that are on the forefront of the emerging green hospitality industry.
Sponsors of the Second Annual Green Lodging and Hospitality Conference will be prominently acknowledged for their support, depending on their level of sponsorship. Their support will be indicated in print in the conference program, and by means of displays that acknowledge them for taking a leadership role in raising the bar for green building. They will also be identified on the conference website with links to their company homepage.
