UIDP offers sponsorship opportunities to organizations that want to increase their visibility within the UIDP community or help the UIDP meet its organizational goals. UIDP sponsorships can be provided for a variety of activities and purposes; representative sponsorships include meeting or project support, or assistance for a specific educational program.
Meeting Sponsorships
A small and strategic set of sponsorships allows the UIDP to produce quality meetings. These opportunities are limited to avoid over-commercialization of UIDP meetings, and the type of meeting sponsorship determines the level of acknowledgement.
Sponsoring the UIDP meetings gives you an opportunity to:
§ Gain exposure to an audience of university and industry representatives
§ Make strategic relationships in an environment conducive to networking
§ Showcase your organization as an innovation leader § Contribute content to the event, including panelists and keynote speakers
Meeting sponsorships can vary but are generally assigned at the following levels:

logistical assistance at the event. The support can be provided in direct costs or in-kind services/materials.
