2021 SPONSORSHIP OPPORTUNITIES
CONSIDER BECOMING A SPONSOR Here at Greater Rochester Chamber of Commerce, our goal is to provide our members the building blocks to a better business. We are your one-stop source for information, advocacy, professional development, human resource services, and networking to help employers build their businesses, their dreams, and our economy. Despite serving more than 1,200+ member organizations employing 150,000 workers, Greater Rochester Chamber works hard to make members feel like top individual priorities. We are the voice of business across the nine-county Finger Lakes region and can be your voice too! I invite you to take that extra step and showcase your business to the community through our highly regarded events. We are offering these sponsorship opportunities to put your organization’s name on our programs and events and all our social media platforms. By sponsoring these events, you receive the platform you need to position your company in front of leading business executives and anywhere from 50 to more than 2,000 attendees, depending upon the series. This platform allows you to network, build relationships with those leaders, and get noticed; it allows you to take your business to the next level. Enclosed is information detailing event series sponsorship packages ranging from $5000 to $10,000 with appropriate benefits attached. Signature events carry their own individual sponsorship options and information on those are available upon request. Please contact Greater Rochester Chamber Events Director Susan George at (585) 256-4612 or Susan.George@GreaterRochesterChamber.com with any questions. We look forward to your support and engagement at our events. Warm Regards,
