Interested in sponsoring the Security Symposium? Here’s some quick info:

  • How can you be a sponsor? Sponsors are typically sought out by the MidwestTechTalk planning committee. We took feedback and did conference planning surveys filled out by K-12, Higher Ed, and Library technology departments and asked who they wanted as sponsors. We only invited the top vendors that were said to be trusted by school district technology departments across the state of Missouri and the Midwest. That said, if you weren’t asked, that doesn’t completely mean that there’s no a place for you at the conference. You can reach out to us and we’ll see what we can come with up; email info@midwesttechtalk.com.
  • What is the value of a sponsorship? A sponsorship will get your business or organization face to face with I.T. Directors, Network/Systems Administrators, and other technical staff from educational institutions around the state of Missouri and the Midwest.
  • Are there different sponsorship levels and what’s the difference between them? Yes! We have 2 sponsorship levels for the Security Symposium. Side Note: We also have special sponsorship levels if you want to sponsor BOTH the MidwestTechTalk technical conference AND the Security Symposium. Email info@midwesttechtalk.com to learn more about that. Here are the 2 sponsorship levels for the Security Symposium:
    • Platinum – Cost is $2500. You’ll basically be paying the bill for food and drink (either picking up the tab for breakfast and a snack OR lunch and a snack).
      • What do you get in return?
        • An hour long “Vendor Showcase” classroom session where you can show off your skills, products, and solutions. MUST BE SECURITY RELATED. (Platinum and Gold only)
        • A booth in our vendor area for both days of the conference, where whitepapers can be given out

        • Invitation to the Kick Off event
