Sponsorship

Outline of Sponsorship Opportunities

The annual conference has become an important event on the industry calendar at which sponsors can increase brand recognition while networking with key private and public representatives involved in the Western Cape property development sector.
 
Together with increasing awareness of your products and services, participation as a sponsor:

• ensures each sponsor recognition as a supporter of economic development in the province;
• offers a highly representative platform for engaging with potential customers and future business partners;
• opens doors for exploring new opportunities in the property development sector, identifying emerging trends and sparking new ideas;
• develops rapport with industry colleagues as well with political leaders and authorities at both local and provincial level.

 

Various sponsorship opportunities are available for the WCPDF’s 2020 Vision for Growth conference:

1. Gold, Silver and Bronze sponsorship.
2. Name branding of functions.
3. Sponsorship of a variety of delegate and speaker items, including sponsorship towards keynote speakers’ accommodation and travel costs.

CONCLUSION

We are most willing to discuss implementation of the above offerings or any other ideas you may have for your company to add value for our 2020 conference delegates and gain appropriate exposure for your organisation.

We hope to conclude most of the major sponsorship agreements before the end of June 2020 so that we can timeously include the names of major sponsors in the main wave of advertising leading up to the event in August 2020.

We look forward to welcoming you on board as a sponsor of the WCPDF 2020 Vision for Growth conference, and to working with you to make the event, once again, a valuable and rewarding event for all participants.
