Investment Life & Pensions Moneyfacts Awards Sponsorship

Sponsorship Opportunities

What are the Awards all about?

The Investment Life & Pensions Moneyfacts Awards brand reliably gains coverage across the entire year, with the industry participating in the testimonial and entry process from February to April, the shortlists being announced via an online event in May, the glittering ceremony in September followed by successful organisations shouting about their success well into the autumn and beyond.

The awards welcome participation from major providers and advisers who recognise the importance and quality of these independent awards. Giving your support as a sponsor is an excellent way to raise the profile of your organisation with key people in the investment, life and pensions market. There are several sponsorship options available to suit different budgets.

Multimedia Sponsor

We will once again be running our very popular multimedia wall, giving guests the opportunity to get their photos on the big screens along with your name and brand, with a sponsorship reaching out beyond the event itself via the event hashtag. With this in mind, we are pleased to offer the opportunity of a multimedia sponsor at this year’s event.

Multimedia Sponsor

This package will include the following:

Branding on the event social media wall, which will display fully moderated guest posts that use the event hashtag during the three-course event dinner.

We will work with your representative to promote your own social media around the event, which will also be displayed throughout the evening.
Branding featured on the 75-inch plasma-screen table plans that are active after the drinks reception (These screens can be used after the ceremony to continue to display the social media wall).

ceremony. A maximum of 10 sponsors will join to support the networking aspects of our ceremony.
