In addition to preferential treatment of Sponsor’s Community Announcements, Community Publishing Articles and special recognition at Mixin’ & Minglin’ networking events, TechLINKS Sponsors benefit from a range of targeted services including:
1. Tactical Marketing Session – Meeting Location: at the Sponsor’s office
TechLINKS will facilitate a planning session with each Sponsor where we will take a look at their target market, learn more about best opportunities and how TechLINKS can help create introductions as needed. A list of specific marketing and promotional action items will emerge. We will work jointly with each Sponsor to help them achieve their goals for the technology industry in Georgia within the contracted period of time.
2. Participation on TechLINKS Platinum Plus Advisory Forum:
The TechLINKS Platinum Plus Advisory Forum (PPAF) is composed of one representative from each Platinum Plus Sponsor. The PPAF will help guide TechLINKS throughout the year with suggestions on research and interview initiatives. This group of people will also be among the first to receive the research analysis conducted by TechLINKS in 2006 around the buying trends within each of the TechLINKS Exchange categories.
Yet another benefit to being a part of this forum is that each Sponsor will have the opportunity to share contacts with each other that may help open doors to target companies.
3. TechLINKS “Let’s Do Business!” Reception - 2 Invitations for each of 4 receptions
“Let’s Do Business!” is an invitation only reception that has proven to be very effective for Sponsors. TechLINKS brings together leaders from business, government, education and non-profit sectors as well as our featured CIO for the issue for Sponsors to network with. This reception provides an excellent opportunity for Sponsors to meet and get to know additional senior leaders within the technology industry.
4. CIO Roundtable Discussion
A select group of CIOs profiled in the upcoming issue of TechLINKS magazine join the Platinum Plus Advisors for an hour of discussion prior to “Let’s Do Business!”. Topics relating to current or futuristic technology trends are chosen in advance to facilitate a roundtable discussion which is led by the featured CIO of the quarter.
TechLINKS also provides each Platinum Plus Advisor with an exclusive networking guide containing photos and bios of each Platinum and Platinum Plus Sponsor, as well as photos of the CIOs interviewed in the current publication, along with personal introductory information to facilitate networking.
