CORPORATE ENGAGEMENT

Corporate partners are vital to CUMU’s success and the success of our campuses. We invite you to join us at the conference as a sponsor, presenter or attendee.

2026 cumu conference prospectus

Are you with a corporation and interested in presenting?

CUMU values insights from our corporate community. Two options are available for you to contribute your thought leadership to this year’s event:

  • Sponsor the conference. Opportunities are available to companies seeking to get the most out of their experience at the annual CUMU Conference. Depending on your level of support, your company will receive a sponsored session, invitations to the Presidents’ Dinner, recognition at the conference, complimentary full-conference registrations, visibility and more. View the prospectus (PDF) or contact vholton@cumuonline.org for more information and to secure this opportunity. 
  • Submit a presentation proposal through the call for proposals process. You can go through the call for proposals process, in which case your proposal will be peer-reviewed and the conference review committee will determine acceptance to the program. There are limited opportunities available in the conference program for sessions featuring corporate partners, and those spots are competitive. 

Attendance at pre-conference meetings and workshops

The conference officially begins with the lunch plenary on Monday, November 9, and corporate partners are invited to participate in any conference activities not designated for specific audiences (such as the meetings of the Anchor Learning Network/Huddles and other invite-only events). You are welcome to join us for other pre-conference events such as the Sunday Meet & Greet, and you can sign up for a pre-conference workshop on Monday (for an additional fee as listed in registration).
