WEBINAR SPONSORSHIPS
Showcase your leadership in the robotics and automation industry
and gain hundreds of quality leads!
RIA webinars are a great way to attract targeted leads and promote presenters and sponsors as robotic
automation leaders. By sponsoring an RIA educational webinar, your company will receive brand
acknowledgment, point-to-point contact with a targeted audience, and promotion throughout Robotics Online and
the RIA E-Newsletter. Sponsors can expect an average of 300-400 leads per webinar.

SPONSOR A WEBINAR
Sponsor a webinar topic that has already been scheduled. You can choose from the list of webinar
topics found in our Webinar Calendar on the following page.

Cost: $5,000 per webinar

EXCLUSIVE WEBINAR SPONSOR
Companies may propose a non-commercial webinar topic and purchase an exclusive sponsorship. With an
exclusive sponsorship, the presenter does not share the sponsorship with other companies, so your logo alone
would appear in all the pre-webinar marketing and in the live presentation. In addition, your company would
exclusively receive the list of leads. Be sure to review our Webinar presentation guidelines for a full list of rules /
regulations of presenting an RIA webinar as these do apply for sole sponsorships as well.

Cost: $8,500 for exclusive webinar sponsorship

Webinar sponsorships are filling up quickly. To reserve your spot today, contact
