2026 IES RMS Season Sponsorship
The IES Denver, Rocky Mountain Section aims to provide quality educational and social events to the lighting, design, and construction communities in the Rocky Mountain Region. With the Season Sponsorship, we aim to allow our supporters the opportunity to properly budget for upcoming events prior to the financial year and show their support of the section all year, not just at the golf tournament. As a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization, we have relied on the donations and the golf tournament fundraiser as our major source of income for running our events and our scholarship funds for CU Boulder Students that we give out each year. The sponsorship will reduce the amount of “asks” for sponsorships throughout the year and help fund multiple types of events, with the aim of making all events free to Students, Emerging Professionals, and IES Members. It also gives you a chance to be recognized throughout the year as contributors to the mission and aims of the IES. We typically have at least one educational or social event a month throughout the year, in addition to short lunchtime tech talks, the Fundamentals of Lighting Education course, and the Annual Golf Tournament. We hope that you will join us in sponsoring the IES Rocky Mountain Section.
Our 2026 programming is underway, but will likely include (4) lunch time virtual tech talks, (4) educational evening events, (4) social networking events, the Fundamentals of Lighting (FOL) offering, the Annual Golf Tournament, (2) partner events each with the Denver Architectural Foundation, WILD, and IALD, and (1) Co Produced Educational event with the Student Chapter of the IES at CU Boulder. 2026 will see the return of the Brilliance Awards, however due to the nature of the every other year event, funding will be undertaken separate from this season sponsorship.
Please review the tiers below and reach out if you have any questions. As you create your budget for the year, we hope you consider donating to this one time, annual donation to support our programming.
