Platinum + Networking Reception
Opening VIP Reception at 1WTC
Main Networking Reception at Empire State Building
There were two major networking receptions held in conjunction with Platinum sponsorship of the 2015 conference; the VIP Reception at One World Trade Center on the evening of Sunday, 25 October, and a Networking Reception at the Empire State Building on the evening of Monday, 26 October.
Platinum networking reception sponsors enjoy maximum exposure both before and during the conference, with the second-highest priority of branding in all documentation and on-site signage (after Diamond Sponsors).

Platinum + Host Room
There were 15 Host Rooms available at the 2015 conference (seven at the Platinum level), for companies to organize their own series of presentations, seminars, meetings, networking lunches, and/or other events across the two main conference days. These rooms, which also served as exhibition suites, were promoted to all delegates both in advance of, and during, the conference itself, and Host Room sponsors invited their own external contacts too, irrespective of whether they were registered to attend the conference. The Platinum Host Rooms were 65-100 square meters in area (allocated on a first come-first served basis in terms of room size and availability).
The main difference between a Platinum + Host Room package, and the Silver + Host Room package – other than the difference in room size – was that Platinum sponsors also enjoyed being an integral part of the main conference itself, enjoying a speaker role and maximum exposure both before and during the conference, with the second-highest priority of branding in all documentation and on-site signage (after Diamond Sponsors).

- Recognition as a major sponsor of the Conference, with high priority branding among sponsors*

- Opportunity for a Senior Director to deliver a conference presentation within the main conference program or be a speaker within a panel discussion (note: a peer-reviewed paper was required to substantiate this)
