Ticket Summit sponsorship program in swing

Ticket Summit 2008, the secondary ticket market’s largest industry conference, is offering event sponsorship opportunities for businesses looking to market their products and services to the influential ticket industry executives in attendance. The conference and trade show is scheduled for July 23-25 at the Venetian Resort Hotel Casino in Las Vegas.

Available sponsorship opportunities, which cost as little as $200, include pens, pads, statement stuffers and other bag drop-in items. In addition, businesses can sponsor a raffle prize, or go even bigger by sponsoring the event’s Internet Lounge, Conference Guide, Registration Booth, or one of the multiple catered events. Also, all sponsors will receive a free link on the Ticket Summit website and inclusion in the Ticket Summit Conference Guide.

This year marks the third year of the conference, and the 2007 summit more than doubled its attendance compared to the inaugural year in 2006. Organizers expect to do that again in 2008 with more than 1,000 attendees, consisting of ticket brokers, venue operators, industry executives, market experts, journalists and sports and entertainment officials.

“With an expansive array of search-engine marketing firms, software vendors, venue managers, and leaders in the entertainment industry, Ticket Summit has dramatically expanded its offerings for this coming July,” said Molly Martinez, Executive Director of Ticket Summit 2008. “There is no doubt it will be the sought-after event of the year in the secondary ticketing industry.”

Ticket Summit 2008 is presented by TicketNetwork, which also owns TicketNews.
