Event Sponsorship Details
Why Exhibit with CTA?
The Corrections Technology Association (CTA) is a public, non-profit network of professionals actively involved in leveraging technology in the field of Corrections. The Annual Technology Summit allows correctional technology professionals to gather and exchange valuable information with their peers and from leading business sponsors who serve the corrections community. Attendees come predominately from State or Provincial Corrections Departments, but in recent years an increasing number of large County and City correctional agencies have participated.
CTA has a significant number of organizations represented including federal, state and county corrections as well as international participation. Generally, attendees are the primary technology “decision-makers” for their respective organizations, with many Chief Information Officers and IT Directors in attendance. The CTA Summit theme of “Technology Through the Sands of Time” promises to deliver a compelling program of topics and presentations to attract IT professionals from across North America. The focused makeup of attendees offers Sponsors an unparalleled opportunity to showcase their products and services, and to form lasting relationships with potential customers.
The CTA Executive Committee, recognizing the tremendous value that sponsors offer CTA attendees and treats sponsors as close business partners. Sponsors are invited to attend all sessions, lunches and receptions. Additionally, sponsors may volunteer to give a 50-minute presentation (described below), have the opportunity to host specific events and provide door prizes.
