New sponsorships and exhibition upgrade for Umbrella 2007
CILIP's flagship event launches sales campaign
Major new sponsorship opportunities and an expanded exhibition have been announced for CILIP's flagship event Umbrella 2007, which will be held at the University of Hertfordshire in Hatfield on 28-30 June 2007. A sales and marketing campaign is now underway to ensure the conference is the biggest and best yet.
Leading UK provider of consulting and professional support services Tribal has been secured by CILIP - The Chartered Institute of Library and Information Professionals - as Umbrella's first-ever overall conference sponsor. But there are many more sponsorships available to suit all budgets during the three-day event.
They include two Prime Sponsorships of the Opening Party and Gala Banquet, and a range of options including an Information Lounge, Showcase Presentations, numerous social events and comprehensive delegate support. A sponsor is also being sought to honour the best entry in the Poster Sessions, and there is even an opportunity to provide a promotional video in the shuttle bus to the venue.
CILIP's flagship event will attract more than 800 delegates to its modern new venue, and the Umbrella 2007 exhibition will be significantly larger than in 2005. Stands are available on a first-come first-served basis.
All this activity supports a comprehensive conference programme with the theme Catalysts for change - making a difference with nine separate content streams. It features more than 50 specialist workshops and plenary sessions as well as technology showcases.
Full details of Umbrella 2007 are on line at the event's dedicated website www.umbrella2007.org.uk. To discuss sponsorship options contact John Woolley, Managing Director, CILIP Enterprises via Email at Mailto:[log in to unmask] or call 020 7255 0694.
