Sponsorship opportunities
Do you need to promote your company to mortgage lenders? Do you offer products or professional services in this sector?
Whether your company is a well-established industry supplier or just entering the mortgage space, the CML can help you deliver a targeted message and presence.
With over 30 events including seminars, workshops, hospitality events and conferences, there are sponsorship options to suit every budget. The following describes some of the opportunities available.
Seminar sponsorship
With seminars on clearly defined topics, aimed at specific job functions and market sectors, sponsors can find a perfect match for their needs. Areas recently covered by CML seminars include:
- Financial fraud and crime
- Basel II implementation
- Mortgage funding
- Non-conforming lending
- Lifetime mortgages
- Homebuying process
- First time buyers
Content development involves our policy and research experts, ensuring subjects covered are topical and informed.
Seminar sponsorship packages include branding and profile on the promotional materials; branding on delegate packs, signage and other printed materials; space to exhibit; conference and stand passes and the opportunity to network with mortgage industry decision makers. Package prices vary depending on the event subject, duration and topicality, but typically start at £4,000. Details of specific event packages can be obtained from events@cml.org.uk.
Workshop sponsorship
This style of event is becoming increasingly popular with a more interactive and specialized focus. Workshops held in 2005 include:
- Treating Customers Fairly
- Customer Retention
- Product Design and Development
- Arrears and Possessions
A maximum of 20 delegates attend each workshop, but because the content is so focused, delegates are drawn from a narrow range of job functions. Workshops are an ideal forum for a sponsor to showcase a specific product or service. It may be possible for a company to sponsor a series of workshops, to gain maximum benefit. Details and pricing can be obtained from events@cml.org.uk.
Hospitality sponsorship
The CML is renowned for its major events including annual lunches in Scotland, London and N Ireland; the CML annual conference and dinner; and the new CML Scotland gala dinner. The mortgage industry turns out in force, bringing along valued staff, associates and clients to entertain. Such high-profile events command attention and are extremely popular sponsorship vehicles.
Typically, benefits include extensive branding and profile opportunities, exhibition space, guest tickets or table, opportunity to welcome guests, provision of branded table gifts or takeaways and corporate themeing where possible. For details of specific events or packages contact events@cml.org.uk.
