Becoming a Sponsor
Thank you for your interest in becoming a WABE sponsor! A major strength of our convention is the outstanding relationships we have with, and the support we receive from, our suppliers and vendors.
There are three levels of sponsorship that a sponsor can participate in. Each level is designed to give you maximum exposure for your contribution. Of course, the higher the level, the greater the benefit and exposure a sponsor receives. Please see the categories below, which outline the benefits given with each level of sponsorship.
If you are interested in becoming a sponsor, please email Kathy Watson
You can also reach Kathy by phone at 403-630-4907.
