Sponsorships
By sponsoring the Incubator System and its clients, you will positively impact the technology business base in the Hampton Roads region and have the opportunity to find new customers, create strong partnerships, and identify new investment opportunities.
Clients typically build long-term loyalty arrangements with generous sponsors who care enough about their success to be involved and contribute. Word-of-mouth advertising in an incubator environment is swift and other clients and incubator associates will use a sponsor that has provided quality work.
As a nonprofit, the Hampton Roads Technology Incubator System relies on both monetary and in-kind contributions from organizations and individuals to achieve its goal.
