We reserve the right to pass on the marginal additional costs in such exceptional (and consulted) circumstances.
- We will put a page up on our website devoted to you.

Single Seminar Sponsorship (exclusive) - (£1000 or £1500 + VAT)
- On occasion, you may want to sponsor a single seminar within our general programme
- There are two rates on offer
- the more expensive assumes that the audience of up to 40 is invited for free .... £1500 (+VAT)
- the cheaper option assumes that we use our normal pricing policies .... £1000 (+VAT)
- In both cases, you would also have to pay for post-seminar catering costs (can be around £10 per head)
- We would work with you in the design of the programme and would normally assume that you provide a qualified chair or speaker as part of the sponsorship package
- You would have first choice of display space
- You would be able to invite an agreed number of executives and guests for free
- Where APTN has an overall sponsor, we would expect to be able to give them discreet acknowledgements.
- Similarly, if you choose to sponsor a Seminar which naturally falls into the territory of one of our Specialist Seminar series, you would have the option of badging it as part of this series, in which case we would need to give discreet acknowledgement to the sponsors of that particular series.
- However, for this particular seminar, you would be acknowledged as the lead sponsor
- Apart from our background sponsors, you would have exclusive sponsorship rights to the particular seminar you are financing.
- This offer is based on costs which produce productive, but relatively low-frill seminars (choice of rooms, quality of staging, post-conference refreshments, amount of printed support material etc).If you require more expensive options (ie you want a particularly prestigious location), we reserve the right to negotiate with you for a contribution, above the rates quoted above, to cover exceptional costs.
- After the seminar, we will do an email on your behalf to all those attending the seminar, in which you can ask them to register their interest in continuing to receive approaches from you.
Single Seminar Sponsorship (non-exclusive) (£500 and upwards + VAT)
- On occasion, you might want us to add a particular topic into our overall seminar series, without your bidding for exclusive sponsorship rights.
- Providing the suggestion fits into our overall seminar remit, we will normally be happy to run such a seminar - for a fee.
- We would badge you as a sponsor of the event, but this would be on a non-exclusive basis - meaning that we could bring other sponsors in to help us defray costs.
- We would consult you on speakers, chairs etc. We would consider your suggestions of qualified people who might chair or speak.
- We would offer you five free places at the seminar (extra places to be negotiated)
- Where there is room at the seminar, you (and other sponsors) would have first choice of display space.
- Where your proposed topic falls naturally into the territory of one of our Specialist Seminar series, we would negotiate about whether we badged it as part of this series. If we did, then you would also share sponsorship billing with with the sponsors of that particular Series.
- This offer assumes the relevant seminars will be our traditional, early evening affairs. There may be circumstances where the economics of the seminars may change (we might want to run half-day events, put on a dinner after a seminar etc). We reserve the right to pass on the marginal additional costs in such exceptional (and consulted) circumstances.
- After the seminar, we will do an email on your behalf to all those attending the seminar, in which you can ask them to register their interest in continuing to receive approaches from you.
