Xtalks Event Sponsorship Opportunities
Imagine a room full of the decision makers critical to your business…Wouldn’t you want to be in there with them, seen and heard by all? Xtalks can take you there!
Xtalks, part of the Honeycomb Group of Companies, provides the information you want, when you need it. Xtalks Web Conferences are live, targeted, interactive multimedia presentations viewed by purchase decision makers. They deliver live access to news makers, business leaders, analysts and solution suppliers.

You enjoy all the benefits of association with the appropriate event—targeted at the decision makers you need to be in front of—with a promotional package that underpins your branding strategy .You can choose simple branding at Web Conferences (from just a logo to a full commercial), a database of qualified leads, or a presented Web Conference Workshop at the event.
For many companies, partnership with Honeycomb Worldwide Inc. has become an integral part of their marketing mix, delivering a hard-to achieve blend of branding, positioning, association and, critically, interaction with the business leaders that matter. Xtalks handles all administrative, marketing and promotional needs, leaving you free to concentrate on your own plans for the event and to generate new business.
