In general, event sponsorship is a largely untapped market, but as the scope of the event world changes, the opportunities for sponsorships are also shifting.
There are several places where sponsors can be highlighted when using Accelevents, whether in-person, virtual, or hybrid events.
Areas for sponsor placement
Event Landing Page
Event description area - you can add the logos of featured sponsors to the description area so that attendees can see them right away.
Sponsor tab - have all the sponsors listed on this page.
Virtual Event Hub
Carousel - you can add a sponsor's carousel image to appear in the carousel and be able to set how long it can be seen in the carousel.
Feed / Lobby Feed - you can post your sponsor's logo, message, or content and add links to that post.
Sponsor tab - have all the sponsors listed on this page.
Call to Action button - you can add a featured sponsor logo in the left side navigation, and when clicked, the attendee will be redirected to a specified URL (e.g., sponsor's website)
Lobby and Expo Banner - you can add the sponsor's logo in the banner area, which can be seen in the Lobby and Expo area of the virtual event hub. You can even add a recorded or live video broadcast to the banner.
