Why Your Brand, Why Now

The Case for Moving This Quarter

AI infrastructure is the largest capex cycle of our generation, and the decisions are being made right now in rooms we're building. Every quarter Your Brand waits, a competitor partner anchors a venue we can't re-open.

750
Your Brand-eligible attendees at NeurIPS 2025

$40–80
Cost per decision-maker vs. $150–300 traditional
3–5x more efficient than standard conference sponsorship.
What's at Stake if We Wait
The venue window closes first
Computex banquet and NeurIPS vessel are already booked. Holding them costs us real dollars. Other partners are in conversation — we want Your Brand first.
Audience curation starts 8–12 weeks out
The best attendees don't respond to last-minute invites. Locking the partnership now means we build the guest list with Your Brand in mind from day one.
2027 renewal is decided by 2026 performance
Strong partners become default partners. Anchoring the 2026 calendar is the lowest-risk way to own 2027–2028 across the same community.
The Ask
30 minutes this week. A decision by end of Q1.
We'll walk through the calendar, pick the 2–3 events that best match your GTM priorities, and sketch a tier together. You don't need a budget number today — you need to see which rooms Your Brand should own in 2026. We'll do the math from there.
