When it comes to sponsorship ideas the traditional show directory, signs, and banners all still have a place. However, there are some fresh new ideas that should be considered as well. Many show organizers are looking for new ways to bolster their offers by helping companies impress their audiences. Here are a few fresh sponsorship ideas to consider.

Apps

Event apps are a great thing for a company to support. Some of the sponsorship ideas are for the splash page, which is the page that the app opens up on. There can be sponsorships for other functions of the app as well such as the show schedules, the map, etc. Sponsors could also buy banner ads that will appear in different areas of the app.

One of the reasons that sponsors like apps is because they will be able to see how many users saw the app and how many clicked through on their app.

Interactive Walls

Another new way to draw crowds at events is through display walls. One of the most innovative is the graffiti wall that was created by 3D Media Group.

There are several firms that rent out kiosks that can used during your event.

It is important to note that if you are using charging stations at your event, make sure that you post a sign that you are not liable for any devices that are left unattended.

Wi-Fi

Charges for Wi-Fi can really add up for event planners. Finding a sponsor for Wi-Fi can be extremely beneficial. The company that sponsors the Wi-Fi will be rewarded with their name showing up on the login page. In addition, at the event a chip or paper that has the login information on it can include the logo for the sponsoring company as well.
