Ashton Media

GET IN FRONT OF
AUSTRALIA’S BEST

Nine invite-only executive forums each year across HR, marketing, and customer experience. No expo floors. No vendor theatre. Just your brand, in the room, with the people who matter.

Partner with Ashton Media

Sponsor. Influence. Thrive

Our events are deliberately unlike anything else on the calendar. Every forum is invite-only, capped in size, and held under Chatham House Rules — meaning delegates speak freely, conversations go deeper, and the relationships formed are genuine.

Held at premium destination venues in the Hunter Valley and Mornington Peninsula, our two-day residential format removes delegates from the day-to-day entirely. No distractions. No back-to-back meetings. Just two days of honest peer discussion with the people shaping their industries.

For sponsors, that environment is invaluable. You’re not competing for attention at a trade show. You’re part of an experience your prospects will remember.

As a partner, you’ll:

  • Build meaningful relationships with senior decision-makers in a setting designed for genuine engagement
  • Connect across 12+ hours of networking, from wine tastings to VIP dinners
  • Gain real insight into your audience’s challenges, priorities, and needs
  • Position your brand as a trusted adviser — not a vendor

Choose how you show up

Every partnership is tailored, but our opportunities fall into four broad categories. Packages are available across individual events or as multi-event partnerships spanning a full portfolio or all nine events.

Thought Leadership

THOUGHT LEADERSHIP

Keynotes, breakout sessions, and tech talks that position your team as strategic thinkers. Present to a captive, senior audience on the topics they’re actively wrestling with.

Hosted VIP Events

HOSTED VIP EVENTS

Private dinners, breakfast roundtables, or exclusive lunches where you facilitate the kind of conversation that simply doesn’t happen on a conference floor. Intimate. Agenda-setting. Memorable.

Onsite Activations

ONSITE ACTIVATIONS

Bespoke experiences woven into the programme — a wine tasting, the gala dinner, or a branded activity that creates natural touchpoints with delegates across the two days.

Brand Alignment

BRAND ALIGNMENT

High-visibility placements that keep your brand front of mind throughout the forum — lanyards and badge sponsorship, barista coffee and cups, and other category-exclusive opportunities.
