Sponsorship


Sponsorship of Chamber events

Would you like to raise your company profile and increase your brand awareness?

Whilst networking, strategic marketing and well-executed advertising campaigns can achieve these objectives; taking advantage of sponsorship opportunities that Leeds Chamber has to offer can be as equally rewarding and effective.

As a chamber member or a non-member, you have the opportunity to sponsor a variety of events ranging from breakfast briefings and lunches to golf and race days.

Benefits of Sponsorship

As a sponsor of a Leeds Chamber event you can typically expect to receive the following:

  • Sole sponsorship of the event

  • Professional photographs taken on the day with Chamber representatives and the guest speaker (if applicable), which will be released to press along with a press release.
  • Your company name on all marketing, PR and advertising material.

  • Editorial in Chamber publications including the website and the Leeds Business Update Magazine (circulation 6000).

  • Three complimentary tickets to the event (worth over £80), which is an ideal opportunity for you to network with potential clients or entertain existing ones.

  • The opportunity to distribute company literature at the event and your logo to appear on networking lists.

  • A thank you and welcome by the chair of the event, and the chance to select the winning ticket of the prize draw.

  • Contact details of all attendees after the event.

This list is by no means exhaustive and we are happy to discuss and consider any special requests that you may have.

Past sponsors

These have included: HSBC, Natwest, learndirect, Bank of Ireland, Bank of England, Premier ITC, Independent Appointments and O2 to name but a few.

Louise Howlett of Independent Appointments said she was “delighted” with their sponsorship package, whilst Emma Parrish of Skingenesis commented: “Sponsoring the Ladies Lunch allowed us to promote our brand to around 100 people. One lady from the lunch was so interested in our products that she turned up at our clinic 9am the following day”.

The cost of sponsorship varies and is dependent upon the type of event. A reduced sponsorship rate is one of the many benefits of being a Leeds Chamber member.
