Parachute Industry Association International Symposium'97
Sponsorship Information
In order to provide the parachuting community the best possible experience at the PIA
Symposium your sponsorship is being solicited. Sponsorship is an opportunity to show
attendees how much your company cares. You gain the recognition and appreciation of your
customers and potential customers. Please take a moment to check out the list below. It
includes the item or event, the approximate cost and some ideas about maximizing your
sponsorship.
This year sponsors are permitted to put their company name or logo (with the approval of the
Symposium Committee) on sponsored items. PIA will have a sign at the registration booth
identifying all sponsors. Sponsor lists will be included in the binder, the program and in the
after-event advertising.
The following is a list of proposed sponsorships. The prices are estimates of approximate value.
Sponsors will pay the money directly to PlA. Money must be received by PIA before Jan.20,
1997. For bookkeeping/tax purposes you will receive a Symposium '97 invoice describing in
detail the item you have sponsored.
This is a unique marketing opportunity to grab the attention of potential customers and to
reinforce to current customers that yours is a company or organtzation that "cares". Remember,
you can always make a donation to the general fund and be recognized as a Symposium
Portfolio Sponsor.
