(US)NUA SPONSORSHIP TERMS & CONDITIONS

These Sponsorship Terms & Conditions (the STC) are by and between Networking User Group, Inc., DBA US Networking User Association (herein referred to as USNUA), and any company(s) or person(s) who choose to sponsor a (US)NUA event (the “Sponsor”).  By sponsoring an event, committing to sponsor an event, or contributing to sponsor an event, Sponsor acknowledges, accepts and agrees to the following Terms & Conditions:

  • Unless multiple sponsorships packages are purchased, Sponsorships are for one event only.

  • Sponsorships are non-refundable. In the unlikely event the Event is delayed or canceled, sponsorship will be re-allocated to another (US)NUA Group Event of the Sponsors choosing.

  • Speaking Rules: At live events, sales pitches, references to specific companies, and/or specific company products are strictly prohibited unless a sponsorship level that includes a "Spark Talk" is purchased. References to politics, religion, or any topic or subject outside the scope and intent of the (US)NUA is strictly prohibited.  Should speaking rules be violated, Sponsor will be ejected from the event and future events, and all sponsorships made will be forfeited.

  • Speaking Engagement: Please note, the (US)NUA does not control the venue environment. We will make our best effort, but cannot guarantee Sponsor representatives will have clear audience engagement or be heard over the crowd, as most of our events are held in active bars and breweries.

  • If sponsorship level permits Company Branded Merch, Sponsor is responsible for notifying (US)NUA of what will be provided and is responsible for bringing the merch to the Event.  Merch must be approved by the (US)NUA no less than 30 days prior to the event.

  • Bundled sponsorships and delayed/canceled events must be allocated/re-allocated within 60 days, or will be subject to automatic allocation/re-allocation at the discretion of the (US)NUA.

  • The (US)NUA reserves the right to accept or decline sponsorship, speaking positions, involvement, presentations, attendee access, swag and/or materials at our sole discretion.

  • Sponsorship does not guarantee a speaker/panelist position, unless so noted.
