Through our annual three-day seminar, Tri-State Seminar, LLC (TSS) provides affordable, high-quality educational training opportunities to water and wastewater professionals from across the United States. The technical sessions and workshops hosted at the seminar are designed to provide continuing education, professional development, and technical advances to support the mission and vision of our Member Associations; AZ Water Association (AZ Water), California Water Environment Association (CWEA), and the Nevada Water Environment Association (NWEA).

In a world where treatment, production, and water quality demands are ever increasing, the Exhibit Hall offers our corporate partners the appropriate venue to share their technologies and solutions with our attendees. Becoming a sponsor is the best way to differentiate your company from the competition! Your company’s sponsorship at the seminar supports the mission and vision of TSS to develop and provide quality education and training programs that serve our attendees while keeping registration costs to a minimum.

Benefits of being a sponsor, even if you are not exhibiting, are:

• Opportunity to strengthen brand awareness and exposure with attendees
• Increased exposure for your company through branded merchandise and signage
• Foster a positive reputation and reinforce your position as a premier leader in the water community
• Exclusive early-access to Exhibit Hall booth registration

PREMIUM SPONSORSHIP LEVELS & BENEFITS

Avoid the rush! Companies securing a sponsorship opportunity will be afforded early priority access to the exhibit booth registration process before general Exhibit Hall registration opens. If you select and receive confirmation for a PLATINUM, GOLD, SILVER, OR COPPER sponsorship opportunity during this registration period, you will be offered an opportunity to secure your booth registration (i.e. no need to register separately when general exhibit booth registration opens)!! Note that each premium sponsorship option includes a set maximum number of booths that are included in the specific option. Through the online portal, you will select your premium sponsorship option and the number of booth space(s) you would like to reserve. The TSS Sponsorship & Exhibit Hall Committees will review and approve all sponsor and booth registrations to ensure no duplicate registrations have been completed by the same company. Once approved an email with a link to choose your booth(s) from an online layout will be sent on a first come, first served basis. You will have 48-hours to complete the activity. If you DO NOT complete the booth space selection activity in 48 hours, your place in the queue will be forfeited and the Exhibit Hall Committee will assign your space from the availability remaining after all Premium Sponsors in the same level as yours have selected their spaces.

Note: Booth Space payment is not included in sponsorship pricing – sponsors must also pay for Exhibit Hall Booth Space(s)
