Conference sponsorship

Put your brand in front of the people who run operations

Conference sponsorship packages from USD 1,500 to 7,500. The World Opex Conference 2027 is a half-day virtual conference on April 8, 2027 with three segments: practice cases with numbers, peer-reviewed research and new developments. Sponsorship is sold separately from the awards season, and no sponsor influences the program committee or the research review.

Who is in the room

The audience you are buying access to

Registration is free and open to everyone; the program is written for these six groups, and the Pro pass and the segments keep the room serious.

Plant, site and operations heads

People accountable for output, quality, cost and safety in manufacturing, process, energy and logistics, who want to see how peers run their sites.

Continuous improvement, quality and opex leaders

Program owners, Lean and Six Sigma leads, Black Belts and quality managers who need cases, methods and a network beyond their own company.

Service operations leaders

Shared services, GBS and BPO centers, hospitals, banks and public services, where the same disciplines apply and the cases are rarer.

SME owners and managing directors

Small and mid-size companies improving without a corporate program, and the people who run those programs for them.

Academics and doctoral students

Researchers in operations management, quality and industrial engineering, presenting in the research segment and taking cases back to the classroom.

Consultants, trainers and solution providers

Welcome in the audience; present only with a client or a user on screen, under the showcase rules.
Why sponsor

Six reasons to be in the first edition

The right room

Registrants are people accountable for output, quality, cost and safety, and the people who advise them. Free registration keeps the room large; the Pro pass and the segments keep it serious.

A session, not a logo

Presenting and session partners present a real deployment with the user on screen, under the same evidence rule as every other session. That is what makes the audience listen.

Leads with consent

Registrants choose whether their details go to sponsors. Session partners receive the opt-in list from their own session; the presenting partner receives the opt-in list for the conference.

Visibility that lasts

Every session is recorded and published on its own permanent page with the sponsor’s logo, so the visibility continues long after the day.

Independence kept

Sponsors have no role in the program committee, the research review or the awards. That independence is what your brand is being associated with.

A path to the next edition

The presenting partner has first refusal on the next edition. Awards sponsors add any package at a bundle rate while keeping their awards package unchanged.

Sponsor sessions

The showcase rules

The same standard as every session on the program, which is why the audience stays for them.

A real deployment

Your session shows the product or service inside a named site or service center, with the problem it solved and the numbers before and after.

The user on screen

The person who runs it day to day joins you and takes questions. The audience trusts them more than a demo.

Questions are open

Fifteen minutes of questions belong to the audience, including what did not work. Honest sessions bring better leads.

FAQ

Common questions

No. Award sponsorship covers the awards season and stays exactly as it is. Conference sponsorship is a separate product with its own packages. Current awards sponsors have first refusal and a 20 percent bundle rate.

Yes, as a session or presenting partner, under the showcase rules: a real deployment, a user on screen and numbers. A product demonstration without a user case is not accepted.

The recording of your session on its own permanent page, the opt-in leads your package includes, a short report on registrations and attendance, and the first World Opex report before public release.

This is the first edition, so we do not publish a forecast. Registration is free and promoted on the World Opex LinkedIn page and to the World Opex community, entrants, judges, council members and partners across more than thirty countries. Sponsors receive the registration count weekly from March 1.

Sponsorship closes on March 25, 2027, or earlier once the slots are taken. Logos and session details are due by March 29, 2027, when the full program is published.
