Every sponsorship includes photography & videography of your presence and recognition from the stage. In-kind gifts — aircraft, cars, rooms, equipment — are honored at the equivalent tier.
Partners In Kind
Some gifts aren't written on a check. The conference seeks two private aviation partners, ground transportation to the ferry, lodging partners for our team, and a sponsor lodging concierge so joining us doesn't cost a second fortune. Every in-kind partner is honored at the sponsorship tier their gift is worth — same stage, same gratitude.
Since 2008, the Free & Equal Elections Foundation has opened America's stages to every voice. United We Stand carries that work forward — and on the island where great minds once began the world over again, your name can hold the door open.
