Sponsorship

Leadership brands have two chief imperatives: stay informed; stay involved. But where are all the industry’s movers and shakers? Which are the sleeping giants, and which are the up-and-comers? What will the next great innovation look like, and where will it come from?

These are the questions that inspired Disruptathon—an interactive forum that brings together the most disruptive forces in an industry, in a quest to write the story of that industry’s future.

Disruptathon sponsors reap the benefits of total industry immersion, intelligence, and connectivity with the companies and people that matter most. Access to the thought leaders themselves, to exclusive pre and post event data, to the attendees, and to the flight path of an industry to help build, shape, and discover the future. Whether it’s marketing, investing, recruiting or business development, Disruptathon events are an ideal place to get the job done in a new and refreshing way.

How our events work:
Disruptathon partners with sponsors interested in attracting innovators to their brands by focusing on vertical industries and technology areas that are experiencing disruptive shifts and growth opportunities. We then build compelling events for that industry that include a thought leadership and contest element.

Typical event agenda:

•    noon-5pm – industry thought leadership conference
•    5pm-6pm – cocktail reception
•    6pm-8pm – dinner and contest program
•    8:45pm – awards presentation
•    9pm – adjourn

Sponsorship packages are priced on a per event basis and include the following designations and deliverables.

Disruptathon add-on – attendee survey.
