2. Sponsoring gets you off the waitlist.

We’re very picky about who gets to attend Vertex (see the above acceptance rate). It’s the #1 reason guests gave us such great feedback and we’re keeping it that way. The reality is, if you’re not an operator at a vertical software platform, you’re starting on the waitlist.

3. Vertex actually gets you in front of the right people.

We believe in full transparency. Here is the full list of companies who attended Vertex. And if you’re worried you’ll be surrounded by other salespeople going after the same targets, don’t be. Here’s a breakdown of the share of attendees by ticket type.

Vertex is one-of-a-kind opportunity to get in front of executives at the fastest growing platforms in vSaaS.

4. Elevate your brand to a leading role in the vertical software space.

Position your company as one of the key enablers of the next wave of innovation for vertical software platforms. Your logo will be next to companies like PayPal, AWS, Mastercard, Layer, Check, Unit and more.

5. Help us shape what Vertex looks like.

We want every sponsor to get the most of Vertex. This means we take a very collaborative approach to panel topics and speaker recruitment, affording you the opportunity to get your best clients on stage and have a direct say in shaping the content the audience consumes.
