BarterCon™ 2027 Sponsorship Opportunities

Help Entrepreneurs Build. Stay With Them After BarterCon.

Celebrating five years of Barter Black® on February 19th, 2027

Why Sponsor With BarterCon

A Room Full of Entrepreneurs Actually Building

BarterCon is the official way Barter Black® is celebrating its five-year anniversary. Sponsors are not sponsoring a passive program. They are showing up inside a working day built for entrepreneurs.

A working room, not a passive audience

Entrepreneurs arrive with a goal and spend the day building. Sponsors meet founders in the middle of real decisions about tools, spend and growth.

A five-year community, not a one-day list

Barter Black® has spent five years building a bartering marketplace where entrepreneurs exchange value and hire one another. BarterCon brings that community into one room.

Product usage, not impressions alone

The strongest sponsorships give attendees something to actually use, so engagement continues long after February 19th.

Curated and intentional

We are inviting a select group of sponsors. Recognition stays clear and uncrowded, so every sponsor is genuinely seen.

Your Brand's BarterCon Journey

Before, During and After February 19th

Every sponsorship is built as a sequence, so visibility turns into engagement and engagement turns into continued product usage.

  1. 01

    Before BarterCon

    Your company is introduced to the Barter Black® community through conference promotion, sponsor announcements and program materials.

  2. 02

    During BarterCon

    You are recognized in the room, with approved on-site opportunities and, for select sponsorships, a short speaking moment with entrepreneurs.

  3. 03

    In the Activation Rooms

    Entrepreneurs complete hands-on Business Activations while your brand is present in the space where the work happens.

  4. 04

    After BarterCon

    Your products, tools, credits or services stay in front of attendees through post-event resources and continued ecosystem engagement.

Sponsorship Investments

Choose the Sponsorship That Fits Your Goals

Sponsorship Visibility

BarterCon sponsorships are designed to create meaningful brand association before, during and after the event. Final placements and promotional timing are based on sponsorship level, confirmation date and timely submission of sponsor assets.

Attendee Information

BarterCon does not sell or distribute its attendee list. Sponsors may collect information directly from attendees who voluntarily choose to engage with their company or opt in through a sponsor experience, form or QR code.

Custom and In-Kind Sponsorships

Have something specific in mind? Select cash and cash-plus-in-kind sponsorships may be customized based on BarterCon needs, available sponsorship inventory and the value of the contribution.

Financial and In-Kind Sponsorships

Contribute Dollars, Products or Both

Financial sponsorships fund the conference experience. In-kind sponsorships put real products, platform access, software credits, services, printing, catering or technology directly into the hands of entrepreneurs.

Many sponsors combine both. We will build a custom scope with you based on what your company wants entrepreneurs to walk away using.

Build Beyond BarterCon

The conference is one day. The relationship does not have to be. Sponsors can stay connected to entrepreneurs through post-event resources, offers inside the Barter Black® bartering marketplace and continued presence as the community grows toward the next BarterCon.
