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.
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:
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:
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.
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.
If you’re interested in learning more about sponsoring the Business Excellence Awards, we’d love to hear from you.
You’re welcome to request sponsorship details, ask questions, or explore potential opportunities - in whatever way works best for you.
