FUTURE & PAST WEBINARS

FUTURE SPONSORSHIP
ELQF try to organise 1 to 2 in person meetings/seminars a year. The events are free to all and we do not charge joining or membership fees relying on the goodwill and generosity of our members to offer their time to provide interesting and relevant presentations.
However, there are costs associated with venue hire and catering and for this reason we look to cover our costs for each event through sponsorship. Sponsorship costs are therefore largely dependent on the venue but as a guide, the typical sponsorship costs for each meeting are about £1,500.
If you would be interested in sponsoring a future event (either fully or partially) please contact elqf@outlook.com.
