Sponsorship
Overview
The Forum on the Entertainment & Sports Industries (ES) is the largest organized group of entertainment and sports lawyers in the United States. Its members represent talent and companies in the entertainment and sports industry in the US and internationally as in-house counsel and firm attorneys.
Sponsoring the conference activities of the Forum is an excellent opportunity to receive high visibility for your company, align your product or services with a targeted, affluent audience, and to enhance your professional network for future business opportunities.
The Sponsorship Committee develops an annual fundraising plan and identifies potential sponsorship opportunities. Working the the direction of the Committee Co-Chairs, this committee implements the Forum's fundraising initiatives for its Spring CLE Program and Annual Conference. The committee is responsible for initiating discussions with potential sponsors, confirming sponsorship commitments and ensuring that each sponsor receives the full benefit of their contribution.
