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. Events are scheduled based on hot topics that are in the news and top of mind—requiring solutions to business problems.

The Web Conferences are objective, educational events that provide industry experts in a convenient forum disseminating focused research findings and analysis. Only the top minds on any given topic are invited to present—assuring the relevance and foresight of the content.

In turn, only sponsors who deliver tailored solutions for the topic at hand are asked to participate in Xtalks Web Conferences, providing participants with solutions to their business challenges and allowing solution providers to get in front of the potential clients they most want to reach—at a time when these clients are thinking about this issue.

Xtalks tailors specific sponsorship packages to help you meet and influence the leaders who will ensure the growth of your business.

With a clear understanding of your overall marketing strategy, Xtalks will work in partnership with you to develop an engaging marketing solution that meets your objectives. 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.

  • Building a quality customer base.
  • Building brand awareness and corporate profile.
