Sponsor Responsibilities

Sponsors are urged to stay within the 2 minutes communication time provided during meetings.

Sponsors will provide HRLF with logo, and arrange for and remove exhibition materials.

Sponsors will not actively solicit members during or around meetings. “Direct active solicitation” covers activities such as sales, appointment requests, handing out materials. The prohibition does not apply when a professional relationship already exists between parties, nor is it inappropriate to respond to inquiries or requests from a member.

Sponsors are restricted from appearing as program speaker or panelist in their first sponsorship year.
