Sponsor Opportunities

DRI’s annual conference offers unique sponsorship opportunities for vendors and suppliers to reach our elite audience of experienced business continuity professionals. We offer sponsorship packages for every budget and ensure that our premium sponsors can continue to engage with our audience long after the conference ends.

DRI understands the value of connecting vendors with their target audience which is why we’ve added new sponsorship options within our popular conference mobile app, as well as a Sponsor Track to our conference program.

Don’t wait to secure prime sponsorship visibility for your company at the annual DRI conference!

DRI conferences are different and so is its relationship with its sponsors and exhibitors. We take the time to understand your products and services and the culture of your organization. You benefit, because as the industry’s most trusted advisor, we provide the buying community with the information they need to make purchasing decisions. We continue to raise the bar and challenge ourselves to innovate.

Here are some of the reasons why DRI is the best choice for you that go well beyond simply increasing brand awareness:

As the world leader in training and certification, DRI has certified over 20,000 professionals. DRI conferences provide a platform to connect with these industry professionals, potential clients, and partners. 60% of our attendees have budgets, looking to either recommend, specify or make the final purchasing decision on products and services for business continuity and disaster recovery. Your DRI sponsorship includes added networking opportunities with a full conference registration and a seat at the Awards of Excellence Gala dinner. Why not nominate yourself or a customer this year? You can cheer them on in style when they win on the big night!

DRI has been a trusted, nonprofit advisor for all things business continuity, resilience and disaster recovery since the 1980s. A lot has changed since then, but we’ve kept you up to date and in the loop about changes to the profession including opportunities to expand into cyber resilience, audit, supply chain management, risk management, and so much more. As such, DRI's annual conference has also grown to become the premier business continuity event for the same reason with more paid attendees than any other business continuity conference. Our global audience appreciates the highly curated educational sessions and expects our sponsors to offer the same with their products and services.

DRI is the ONLY business continuity organization that holds events on college campuses – cultivating the next generation of business continuity professionals and giving them opportunities to advance through scholarships and events hosted by our young leaders. DRI is also committed to supporting and promoting diversity in the business continuity profession. Our Women in Business Continuity Management community has grown by 50% in each of the three years of its existence. DRI continues to publish original research on diversity, hiring, and careers in resilience – presented at our annual conference – that helps further this commitment. Furthermore, DRI is the ONLY conference that provides free education, certification, and placement for veterans. We help our veterans realize their dreams and help both themselves and their respective organizations achieve great success as they transition into the professions of emergency response, crisis management, business continuity, and disaster recovery.
