Organizations can make a financial commitment to the STRIDE initiative through a sponsorship program. Four sponsorship levels are recognized – Platinum, Gold, Silver and Bronze.

Platinum sponsorship is viewed as a partnership with the initiative. We expect that platinum sponsors intend to play a significant role in the on-going efforts of the initiative post-summit and intend to commit staff time to participate in technical committees, leadership roles, etc.

Gold sponsorship assures an organization an opportunity to participate in the Summit but, at least initially, in a slightly less prominent role than a Platinum Sponsor.

The lower denomination sponsorship levels are for those organizations wishing to be recognized for their support in the initiative.
