(POSTPONED) Webinar: Maintaining Your Pride’s Corporate Partnerships During a Pandemic
by FCP Administrator | May 27, 2020 | Uncategorized
As many Pride festivals shift to hosting virtual events this year, many organizers are considering what these changes will mean for their corporate partnerships. This webinar will cover how Pride Toronto approached their sponsors, reimagined their sponsorship assets, and retained corporate partners who lost their sponsorship budgets.
The webinar will also include fresh perspectives from corporate and union partners on how they are looking to maintain their engagement with Pride festivals in the midst of a pandemic and what their organizations are doing to celebrate and support LGBTQ2S+ people. Discussion with participants will follow the presentation.
Please note: This webinar will not be recorded.
After registering, you will receive a confirmation email containing information about joining the meeting.
