StoryConnect Sponsorship

Help Your Brand Story Shine at StoryConnect

Sponsoring StoryConnect puts your brand front and center with innovative communicators and marketers at one of the most beloved and networking-focused conferences on the industry calendar.

The conference is April 13-16, 2026, on the Puget Sound in Tacoma, Washington.

NEW: Networking Adventure Add-On

We love our sponsors, so this year we’re offering sponsors at the $1,000 and above level the opportunity to add an exclusive preconference networking adventure partnership to Mount Rainier National Park.

Spend quality time with up to a dozen attendees in this popular pre-conference networking session. This is limited to one sponsor (and a guest of their choosing). Learn more on our sponsor form!

Excited? We hope so! Select your sponsor level below.

We’ll send an invoice to the address you provide. Questions? Email marketing@pioneer.coop.

 

The best part of StoryConnect is the connections you’ll make. Stay tuned for more networking opportunities and featured speakers!

 

Sponsorship Details

All sponsorships include your logo in the program, on website, on the intermission slides, in announcements from stage and exclusive signage at the time and space related to your selection. Certain perks, including the option to add-on sponsorship of a networking adventure, are available at higher levels of sponsorship.

We do not offer booths due to limited space, but the size of the conference lends itself to plenty of time for interaction between your staff and attendees. In addition to the branding opportunities listed, here are benefits for your brand story by sponsorship level.

We limit the event at 100 attendees from telcos and utilities around the country to make sure lasting relationships are created, with plenty of unique networking adventures, too. Attendees are roughly split between telcos and electric utilities with almost everyone making some kind of broadband expansion or launch. Attendees are usually 60% to 70% marketers and communicators with a mix of utility leadership and member services staff mixed in.
