Revised Sponsorships for 2019
The TSITE Board decided at the 2018 year end board meeting to simplify the way sponsorships are collected. Sponsors will now be solicited once per year before the winter meeting. Sponsorships are available at four different tiers and cover all section meetings for the year, the winter traffic bowl and the website. This method allows companies to make a one time payment per year instead of receiving multiple requests from TSITE throughout the year for various events. Additional information can be found here.
