Security Forum Sponsorship
WHAT PEOPLE SAY
CIO, Fortune 100 company
TechForum is the most informative and educational organization I have ever been associated with. I´ve been part of some really good organizations in my time, however they really do pale in comparison to the group that you have put together
Director IT, Fortune 50 company
I attended the last event and it was simply excellent. The organization was impeccable and the speakers were interesting, captivating and informative. I most certainly enjoy what you do. It's a rare occasion when industry events stay focused and avoid hype and advertising.
CISO, Fortune 500 company
As usual, you did a phenomenal job. It flowed so smoothly and all was arranged so professionally. I wish every event I attended and/or participated in were so well done. Talk about a who's who both in terms of speakers and most importantly in terms of participants. Couldn't ask for more.

Repeat business is predictable. Many of our attendees are still doing business with a company they met at a TechForum event.
Why TechForum? Benefits of Sponsorship
Technology Managers Forum produces two one-day Security Forum: Trends in Enterprise Security executive conferences per year, held in a prime Manhattan location.
All sponsorships come with dedicated exhibit time; meals and snack breaks; easy tabletop setup; free wireless hotspot; and a low-key, convivial atmosphere where attendees are eager to meet your representatives.
Attendance at Security Forum is limited to pre-qualified IT managers from mid-to-large firms. We vet every attendee by their job responsibility, company name, and the revenue size of their organization.
Straightforward excellent content, personal connections built on 25 years of trust, breaks dedicated to interaction among attendees and vendors, and honest dialogue that leads to that coveted follow-up meeting are just some of the reasons we’ve built a loyal following among vendors in-the-know. We’ve built a hard-won reputation for being the one executive-level boutique conference that promises connections that yield results.
We'd love to hear from you, and discuss how participating in a TechForum event can help you reach your sales and marketing goals.
