Sponsorship Options
Seed2Table’s mission is to get the great startups we select for pitching funded. To ensure the success of our mission and maintain an exceptional experience at the event, our sponsorship strategy is very different from most other organizations:
- We are not trying to get as many sponsors as possible. We explicitly limit the total number of sponsors at each event to just 10.
- We carefully vet our sponsors and only partner with organizations that have a stellar reputation.
- Seed2Table is a profitable business, but we will never sacrifice quality, experience, or our mission for extra revenue.
We offer both annual and per-event sponsorships, with the former being the preferred option. If we have a choice between a comparable annual sponsorship and a per-event sponsorship, we will always prioritize the annual one.
Our top-tier sponsorship comes with exclusivity – a guarantee that your company will be the only organization in your vertical (e.g., banking, legal, audit, etc.) on the floor. However, this comes with two important caveats:
- We will still admit investors, community leaders, and other individuals who can help presenting startups fundraise, as long as they attend in that capacity and not as representatives of a competing organization. If they have ties to your competitors, we will ask them not to represent that side.
- Exclusivity is defined both geographically and by vertical:
- Current verticals include Life Sciences and Technology (including Defense, Cyber, GovTech, AI, and more).
- Current geographies include the East Coast, West Coast, and the entire USA.
- We will continue expanding geographies and verticals over time. However, exclusivity in one vertical and geography does not automatically apply to another.
Each annual sponsorship guarantees at least 8 events matching the sponsored vertical and geography.
Each annual sponsorship lasts for 12 months, beginning on the effective date of the sponsorship contract.
Fine Print
- Includes social media posts, videos, printed materials, emails, PR
- Your promo materials will be included in the goodie bag given to every attendee.
- Includes the list of participants and their LinkedIn profiles, when available.
- Includes cocktails and hors d’oeuvres.
- Includes full list of participants, interactive dashboard, messaging with opted-in attendees. NOTE: we do not disclose non-public information about attendees.
- The business presentation is limited to 3 minutes, as we’ve found this to be the optimal length. Longer presentations can sometimes lose audience engagement rather than capture their interest.
- The exclusivity is the guarantee that your business will be the only business representing your vertical on the floor. There will be no other sponsors in your vertical and no representation of your competition in attendance. Please read the important details above.
