IEG SPONSORDIRECT AND FILMFESTIVALS.COM TEAM UP TO HELP
FILM FESTIVALS SELL SPONSORSHIP AND BUILD REVENUE

The $24.4 billion sponsorship industry is healthy, but crowded. While sponsorship spending for arts and entertainment has increased significantly over the last five years, finding the right partners in this uncertain economy has never been more competitive.

To support our members in their sponsorship efforts, Film Festivals is pleased to announce a special program with www.iegsponsordirect.com, the new online marketplace for the sponsorship industry. IEG SponsorDirect will help place your opportunities in front of the most likely sponsors, in real time, at a fraction of the cost and effort of cold calling and blind proposals.

In the near future, Film Festivals members will receive information on how to create Sponsorship Opportunity Listings on www.iegsponsordirect.com and take advantage of an exclusive offer available for Film Festivals members only.
