2021 agile Research laboratory conference Sponsorship Levels

This year, we’re doing something a little different with sponsorships.  The type of sponsorship will determine the relative size of your logo compared to the others on the promotional material.  The higher the level of sponsorship, the more prominent the logo for your organization.  This year, we’ve added a single Platinum sponsor slot, which literally gives your organization top billing, the marquee sponsor.  Review the levels below.

Note:

Sponsorships are purchased by submitting the form launched when you click the Apply for Sponsorship button below.. 

You will receive further instructions for uploading logo and identifying corporate information, as well as the ability to register the specfied number of attendees.
