Sponsoring and hosting our events
We host a number of in-person and online events throughout the year. Our events range in size from our flagship Annual Conference and Disability Smart Awards to intimate webinars. We’re looking for event sponsors and inspiring, interesting and accessible spaces to host our events.
By sponsoring or hosting an event, you can expect to reach more than 500 delegates on the day plus reach our broad and diverse network of contacts through an extensive event marketing campaign.
“Hosting the Business Disability Forum Summer Reception was a great opportunity for our firm to showcase Enabled, our disability inclusion focussed People Network, and openly share our commitment to creating a specific disability & neurodiversity inclusion strategy in the near future. Taking the time to not only celebrate and recognise all that BDF do and have achieved over the last year, and connecting with other like-minded organisations and individuals has only strengthened our drive to progressing disability inclusion within the legal sector and beyond, furthering our opportunities to collaborate across industries and communities.”

We also offer cost-effective bundling packages, giving you the opportunity to sponsor an event and any related resources. For example, Texthelp sponsored four Global webinars plus the Global Toolkit maximising reach and exposure.
Sponsoring our research
Our research generates new knowledge and brings bold and fresh approaches to policy problems, so that disabled people have better experiences of social and economic inclusion.
By sponsoring a research piece, your logo will be included across all elements of the research project from gathering the data to promotion and publication.
Our last big research project – The Great Big Workplace Adjustments Survey had nearly 1,900 respondents and over 2,500 visitors to its website section.
