The Annual Career & Professional Development Conference
Corporate Sponsorship
There are various ways that your corporation can take
advantage of this conference. You have the option of
advertising in the magazine, providing training sessions
for their employees, and even setting up an exhibit table
to market your organization.
By your company participating in the conference, there
will be great opportunities for you to market the value of
your business. In order for you to get the most out of the
conference, we have put together the following packets
that cater to your industry.
Exhibit Table
Companies will receive adequate exposure by setting up an exhibit table. Attract students and adults to
your company by stating your presence at the conference. This is one of the best ways to get your name
out to convention registrants. Your company will receive the following:
• 2 conference registrants for all days (Thursday, Friday & Saturday)
• Exhibit registration table (6’ x 30” table and 2 chairs) for all days
• Lunch for 2 participants on both days
• A copy of the Young Innovators Magazine (October Issue)
• Access to all workshops, competitions, one-on-one networking sessions
• Recognition in program booklet
Host an Interactive Corporate Community
Many times, passing out pamphlets and brochures about your company isn’t enough. Youth and adults
need to experience the value of your business first hand. By interactively engaging participants into what
you have to offer, attendees will be able to visually and physically realize their dreams come true at the
conference. We want businesses to not only receive contacts, but informed and excited registrants to
enroll in their schools. With over 400 or more students and adults in attendance, we are certain you will
make an impact.
If you want to take your marketing to the next level, an “Interactive Corporate Community” is the way to
go. We will give you a large amount of exhibit space (a minimum of 4 – 7 tables) with your selection of
various rentals (included) to interactively showcase anything you want about your college. This is ideal
for the following:
• Showcase large interactive displays (ie. engineering models & robots, computers, internet cafés,
voting booths & machines, health care screenings, etc.)
• Hosting a demonstration area with your own schedule of activities (e.g. fitness or cooking
demonstrations, networking areas for faculty & staff with hors d’oeuvres , information & training
stage with seating & equipment)
• Fully promote each department in your company (e.g. host interactive displays and projects that
each department may have developed or youth programs, showcase industry professionals , host
networking areas)
• Host on-site interviews (e.g. for academic programs, staffing positions, etc.)
• Host interactive fun areas for youth & parents to appreciate your value in the community
