3 REASONS YOU SHOULD SPONSOR BIG 5G EVENT
CREDIBILITY
Few events can claim to produce their programs in collaboration with Amercia's #1 telco news site. Even fewer can claim to be produced by such a site.
Backed by the editorial foresight, research and networks of Lightreading.com, Big 5G Event is the only event guaranteed to consistently tap into the most thought-provoking and crucial topics affecting the 5G space.
Put simply being associated with this platform is a surefire way to boost your profile in the eyes of a massive and dedicated audience.
CALIBRE
The sheer level of attendee at Big 5G is why some of the world's largest brands continue to invest.
We make a point to cap the size of the event in favor of a much more focused audience of the most involved and influential telco operators.
Not only do we massively incentivize telcos to attend but we also manually vet each and every one to ensure that every conversation you have onsite has the potential to open doors.
CONCENTRATED
5G is a prominent topic in many events out there but for how many is it the main focus?
The fact that this event is focused purely on the 5G space means that you'll be amongst a highly concentrated audience of professionals and enthusiasts meaning your message will go farther with the right people.
