Conference Sponsorship
Sponsorship of the VCU Energy and Sustainability Conference provides your organization with the means to showcase your energy and sustainability products, services, or programs and to have priority access to a wide range of vertical market representatives.
Two types of sponsorship opportunities are available: Conference Sponsorship and Special Event Sponsorship. As a Platinum or Gold Conference Sponsor, you can choose where your exhibit booth will be located. A large exhibit hall with diverse exhibitor booth sizes — 30' x 20', 20' x 20', or 10' x 10' — and placement will provide a unique opportunity to make sure your message is heard. Or choose to be a Special Events Sponsor for the lunches, reception, or the Awards Banquet.
