We welcome all organizations to sponsor our events. This is a great opportunity to garner visibility among funders, implementers, and partners in the field while supporting SID-US to provide a forum for learning, sharing, and connecting. Sponsorship provides a great opportunity for visibility for your organization. Most of our events offer virtual participation so participants can join from across the United States and around the world. Our attendees hail from all sectors of international development - NGOs, for profits, consulting firms, private sector firms, universities, government agencies, think tanks, and more. Please email [email protected] for pricing and benefits. Institutional Members receive a member discount on sponsorship.
