Sponsorship Options


With a base of over 17,000 telecom professionals, sponsorship opportunities are as varied as our membership. Because our primary responsibility is to deliver value to our members whether meetings are sponsored or not, Telecom Council sponsors benefit from our highly respected reputation for uncovering innovation, informative speakers, and quality networking on impotant topics.

There are enough different ways to get involved in a Telecom Council meeting that most sponsorship objectives can be met - from low cost corporate branding to a product launch to high impact 1-on-1 with a room full of global carriers. Regular meeting sponsorships, named Tier 1, 2, and 3, are available for most Telecom Council meetings for attaching your message, your brand, or your products to an existing Telecom Council topic. Specialized sponsorship opportunities are also available for annual recurring Telecom Council meetings or a build-your-own meeting.

Along with the ideas below, we are always open to new ideas to help you get your message out.
