*Lottery Level: Those with limited funds are able to submit their names to the “Lottery” to get a chance to receive a FREE registration to Building Museums™. The amount of free registrations will depend on how many industry partners support Building Museums™. The number in parentheses next to “Lottery Level” in your category connotes how many individuals receive access to the conference from the lottery pool.
**MAAM produced sessions include our Future of Museums plenaries, the Buildy Award, and any introductory or closing announcements.
***Virtual Tours host means that your firm can submit a 15-20 minute virtual tour of a project that you have completed. Tours must be pre-corded. Sponsors with this benefit can also assist in developing other tours.
****Takeover on Social Media: Your firm will get one day to “takeover” MAAM’s social media in February! You create the content, we share on our social media channels (Twitter, Facebook, LinkedIn) and get your message out to our networks.
FAQ
How will MAAM be hosting Building Museums™? MAAM will be using a platform called Hopin to host the 2021 Building Museums™ Symposium. Hopin will have a stage, areas for roundtable discussion, speed networking, and an exhibitor area. To learn more about Hopin’s features, view their video on the attendee experience at: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QRBVbUCNTTg.
What will virtual sponsorship look like? Things will look a little different this year! We’re offering more opportunities to connect with attendees through roundtable discussions, video segments, links to your marketing materials and whitepapers, and a space to meet with attendees virtually. Some of the higher levels include a chance to sponsor webinar content with MAAM throughout 2021.
