Sponsorship opportunities

SMEs are re-focusing on growth and budgeting for the resources, systems and people they’ll need to seize the initiative and capitalise on economic recovery. How are you planning to reach the flourishing businesses and owner-managers who represent your customers of tomorrow?

We can offer you exceptional opportunities to network, build your profile and gain valuable access to the influential opinion-leaders, decision-makers and entrepreneurs at the heart of UK plc’s economic recovery.

This year, the IFA is staging five National seminars at key locations in March and June. Delegates (representing SMEs and the professional services firms that advise them) will be attending primarily to gather essential intelligence and insights to equip them to:

• Maintain the momentum of enterprise growth
• Keep up-to-date with important changes to their field
• Innovate and enter new markets
• Achieve long-term strategic objectives

The seminars represent excellent networking and profile-raising opportunities for commercial sponsorship. Delegates booked to attend include business owners, board directors, senior managers, accountants and tax advisers, as well as representatives of trade associations, professional membership bodies and employers’ organisations.

We are also holding several smaller Roadshow events around the country which we also encourage sponsors to attend to gain maximum coverage.

By becoming an event sponsor, you’ll raise your profile in the local SME community, maintain visibility with existing customers and secure new contacts, referrals and leads. You’ll be better able to align your business and sales objectives with those of like-minded organisations.

Benefits available exclusively to sponsors include:

• Access to IFA members
• Enhanced profile amongst the local business community, via marketing materials promoting the seminars before, during and after the programme
• Opportunities to demonstrate your products in a ‘live’ setting
• Speaking opportunities
• Participation in media and PR opportunities associated with the seminars

To find out how you can gain access to a highly sought-after audience of decision-makers and business leaders, contact John Edwards, interim Chief Operating Officer, on +44 (0)1732 458080, or email johne@ifa.org.uk.
