BIGFIVE DIGITAL OFFERS A RANGE OF SPONSORSHIP OPTIONS FOR ITS NETWORKING EVENTS

These are available to any company or brand wanting to reach out and network within the AME digital media and technology community.


Event sponsorship grants access to the delegate attendees of that particular event, together with branding acknowledgement on event collateral, social media postings, and the BigFive Digital website. Specific elements of the events are available for sponsorship e.g. lanyards, podium, delegate bags etc. For details and a copy of our rate card, please contact: info@BigFiveDigital.org


In addition to our events, we also welcome Corporate Sponsors. Annual packages include membership, a featured presence on all B5D channels, brand acknowledgement on B5D collateral and promotional materials, plus access to all B5D networking events within that calendar year. Corporate sponsors also have the option of including specific event components in their sponsorship package, subject to availability, and rotation. Corporate sponsorship is encouraged for multi-location, brand and international sponsors.

B5D RESEARCH – PARTNERS WELCOMED

We conduct regular research studies into the digital behaviours of consumers and small businesses throughout the AME region. Our aim is for this to become a valuable component of the B5D proposition going forward, however to do this properly requires time, resources and funding. We therefore actively seek support from major brands, corporates, NGOs and other interested parties to contribute to this important work. Research funding can include the sponsorship of a specific question or topic, through to a bespoke or co-branded study on behalf of a company or brand.


B5D research outputs will be issued to media partners in relevant countries or regions, providing additional branding opportunities for sponsors. All co-branded research studies will be shared with the named sponsor, for their own use and for publicity purposes.

While live events are on hold for the time being, we continue to build out a complete platform for providing our community with insight, brand exposure, and meaningful business connections. Our BIG5D.tv YouTube show has received more than 800 viewing hours since its launch in April. Sponsor an episode to brand yourself to our audience of AME local digital influencers. Our weekly newsletter is distributed to more than 2,000 AME industry professionals. Share your latest announcement or run an ad to associate your brand with a thoughtful weekly curation of local digital news and insights from around the region.


Our leadership team is also available for consulting engagements to leverage our experience, expertise and extensive networks. This includes our new Market Entry program, an excellent way for international software companies to connect with local decisionmakers, and vice versa. We are also pursuing new market research opportunities in the region. For example, assessing industry and SME sentiment around business conditions, technology use and other factors that drive decision making for the BigFive Digital audience.
