Sponsorship Opportunities
Our 50th Anniversary celebration provides a unique opportunity for sponsorship — it’s not just about the cruise itself, but also the 11 months of promotion leading up to the actual voyage in October 2023!
With nearly a year’s worth of advertising included in our sponsorship packages, there is incredible value provided at all levels across a variety of IEEE-USA platforms, including news releases, web, social, email newsletters and brochures.
Our two top-tier patron packages also provide for a physical presence on the Independence of the Seas in the classroom/events, and include a complimentary stateroom — giving you a chance to get up close and personal with cruisers in a relaxed atmosphere.
