2022 SPONSORSHIP BENEFITS & OPPORTUNITIESFor 30 years, the National States Geographic Information Council (NSGIC) has boosted national geospatial policy and provided a forum for best practices exchange and collaboration. While NSGIC's core membership is made up of geographic information officers (GIOs) and state GIS coordinators, partners in federal, municipal and county government, academicians, representatives of other geospatial organizations and private industry experts are vital to NSGIC's mission of making critical connections. NSGIC members - and our partners - lead the way in the creation of intelligent maps and databases that equip public and private leaders to make more informed and timely decisions. WHY SPONSOR?Through a year-long sponsorship commitment, geospatial organizations join NSGIC as partners. This unique sponsorship model is designed to create a community for continuous collaboration and to benefit both sponsors and states year-round. State Geographic Information Officers (GIOs), statewide GIS coordinators, state agency GIS leads, state GIS coordinating council representatives, local GIS managers, federal agency partners, tribal representatives, national nonprofit collaborators, academicians, and fellow private sector colleagues all have a seat at the table. Full details can be found in the 2022 Sponsorship Brochure. NATIONAL CONNECTIONS IN ONE LOCATIONThe NSGIC Annual Conferences and Midyear Meetings - whether in person, virtual or hybrid - draw key decision-makers from US states and territories, eliminating the need for cross-country travel to educate customers and prospects about your offerings. Having access to many state members in one location is not only efficient; it enables sponsors to gain critical insight into multiple government organizations, including how to navigate through state-specific procurement procedures. Networking with executives in the national geospatial community can translate into making the best connections to impact government policies, build partnerships and expand your business.
