Sponsorship Opportunities

Summit Chamber Business Excellence Awards

Strategic Partnerships. Meaningful Visibility. Real Connection.

The Summit Chamber’s Business Excellence Awards is our signature annual celebration of the businesses and organizations that power Summit County’s economy.

With more than 200 local professionals in attendance — including business owners, executives, nonprofit leaders, and public-sector decision makers — the BEAs offer a highly targeted opportunity for business-to-business exposure, relationship-building, and brand alignment within our local community.

For organizations focused on business-to-business visibility, relationship building, and local impact, the BEAs offer a highly targeted and meaningful sponsorship opportunity.

Why Sponsor the Business Excellence Awards?

While the audience is intentionally intimate, it is also highly focused.

This is not a mass-marketing event - it is a room full of people who influence hiring decisions, partnerships, referrals, and purchasing across Summit County.

Sponsorship provides the opportunity to:

  • Build meaningful brand recognition with a targeted professional audience
  • Align your business with excellence, leadership, and community impact
  • Create authentic connection through in-person engagement
  • Gain visibility before, during, and after the event
  • Support the organizations and people strengthening our local economy

Sponsorship Opportunities

The Summit Chamber offers a variety of sponsorship opportunities that provide different levels of visibility, engagement, and recognition throughout the Business Excellence Awards season.

Depending on the opportunity, sponsorships may include:

  • Brand visibility through event signage and printed materials
  • Recognition during the live awards program
  • Opportunities to announce award categories or participate in the program
  • Digital exposure through email, website, and social media promotions
  • Customized promotional elements such as video or featured content
  • VIP tickets or hosted tables for team or client engagement
  • Post-event visibility through recap content and winner features

Availability and benefits vary by sponsorship type.  

In addition to structured sponsorship opportunities, custom sponsorships can be created to align with your organization’s goals.

A Flexible, No-Pressure Approach

We understand that every organization approaches sponsorship differently.

Some partners appreciate a brief conversation to talk through goals and explore ideas, while others simply prefer to review sponsorship details on their own.

We’re happy to accommodate both.

Sponsorship information can be shared via email upon request, or discussed in a short, informal conversation if helpful — whichever is most comfortable for you. There is no obligation, and no expectation beyond providing the information you need to determine whether participation is a good fit.

Our goal is to make the process easy, transparent, and collaborative.

Let’s Connect
