I want to welcome you to the relaunch of the ISC’s Web site. We’ve also introduced a new logo as part of our branding campaign. Many thanks to our marketing partner, Inward Solutions, for their valuable development and branding expertise.

As the trade association for sponsors, the ISC has a crucial responsibility to its members as well as the opportunity to create a major impact on the industry by providing sponsors a forum and representation to increase the effectiveness of sponsorship programming.

We have received unanimous support from sponsor executives on the premise of the industry’s first trade association for sponsors. For years sponsors have expressed the desire to work together on common issues and interests. The opportunity is here and we are only limited by the level of engagement from sponsor executives.

It seems we never have enough time in our daily lives, but dedicating time to the ISC will deliver critical value to your job and your company.

I would like to personally thank Coca-Cola Enterprises and The Coca-Cola Company for their crucial contribution to the launch of the ISC and specifically Sharon Byers, Chuck Fruit, Hal Kravitz, Terry Marks, and Bea Perez. Your leadership and vision will make a huge impact ultimately benefiting all sponsors and the rest of the industry. Mr. Marks, CCE’s President of North America, we owe a deep gratitude for his invaluable service on the ISC Board of Advisors.

We look forward to seeing many of the leading sponsor executives this October 3rd and 4th in Atlanta for the ISC Sponsor Summit North America hosted by King & Spalding. The ISC is very honored to have Holmes Hawkins serve on the ISC Board of Advisors. As partner at King & Spalding, Holmes is listed in The Best Lawyers in America and in Chambers USA: America’s Leading Business Lawyers and one of the nation’s top lawyers in intellectual property and licensing.

Working with King & Spalding on the Sponsor Summit has been tremendous. Everything K&S delivers and represents is first class. The facilities are state-of-the-art. The knowledge they will add to the event will make this a hugely popular experience. Please contact the ISC to register and soon as you can due to space limitations.
