Becoming a Sponsor (Economic Developers)

Our Business Proposition

Our business proposition begins with the quality and quantity of Corporate Executives we are able to attract as delegates. All delegates are carefully pre-screened and pre-qualified before an invitation is extended.

Delegate (Corporate Executive) Invitation Criteria

All delegates must meet four criteria to qualify for an invitation to attend:

Responsible for companies' relocation or expansion plans
Currently conducting or about to start preliminary search
Plan to make the final decision on where to expand/relocate between November 2008 and end 2011
The project will result in at least one of the following over three years:
1. 40 full-time jobs (or equivalent) created
2. $1 million in payroll, including health and retirement benefits
3. $2 million in capital investment

Why Do Delegates Attend The Event?

Streamline the site location search - Delegates will select the economic development organizations and utility companies they want to meet with. These meetings will either be (1) 25 minute one-on-one meetings, (2) mealtime meetings or (3) meeting over a game of golf or other recreational event. These will all form part of your itinerary.
A first class conference program - Prepared by Business Facilities magazine, the program will provide strategic and practical information senior executives need to make intelligent location choices.
Networking with their peers - Although delegates will be kept busy around the clock with other corporate executives, there will be time to meet informally and share experiences.
The event is FREE OF CHARGE for all Corporate Executives who are responsible for their companies' relocation or expansion plans and who have qualified for an invitation to attend.

ROI — Sponsors (Economic Developers)

Each sponsor executive selects which delegates he/she wishes to meet using extensive delegate profiles
All meetings are driven by the delegate, and no delegate is placed in a meeting he or she hasn�t specifically approved or requested. This ensures an interested prospect in all business meetings.
Sponsors can request additional meetings at the event using our specialized messaging system
All attendees receive their itinerary one week prior to the event, enabling to prepare for each meeting
