IGIA’s Ribbon Sponsors are foundational for the strength and success of our association. Becoming a Ribbon Sponsor is an extremely valuable investment to make—not only for the benefit of the IGIA, but also for the success of your business.
​
Here are the top reasons to become a Ribbon Sponsor today:

1. Signal your support. IGIA’s retail members – your customers – see and appreciate your support as a Ribbon Sponsor. Cultivate business partnerships and establish your brand as an industry leader.
2. Amplify your membership benefits. Ribbon Sponsorship provides complimentary benefits including event registrations and magazine advertising, plus inclusion in our Convention Perks Package and attendance at the VIP Convention Reception, and more. Your membership goes further with Ribbon Sponsorship!
3. Enjoy valuable visibility. Your company name is featured on our website, in every Escanner and magazine issue, on signage at our premiere events throughout the year, and more. We take every opportunity to promote our Ribbon Sponsors and thank them for their support!

There are four levels of Ribbon Sponsorship: Platinum, Blue, Red, and White. These offer varying investment amounts with varying benefits.
