Sponsorship
TICTeC brings together the world’s best pro-democracy technology researchers, practitioners and funders — but we can’t do it without financial support.
Why sponsor TICTeC 2025?
Sponsoring TICTeC helps you to:
- Demonstrate your organisation’s commitment to shaping a future where technology strengthens democracy rather than undermines it, in order to build societies that serve the many, not just the few
- Demonstrate your organisation’s commitment to defending and advancing democracy across the world
- Build visibility for your brand
- Demonstrate thought leadership within one of the most important sectors for the future of democracy and engagement
- Share your organisation’s projects, products and expertise with attendees actively using and looking for new technologies
- Connect with and learn from experts in using technology for social good from across the world
- Engage with current and potential clients (see who attends TICTeC below)
- Demonstrate your organisation’s commitment to transparency and accountability (many of TICTeC’s sessions are dedicated to tech for open government and transparency).
- Demonstrate your organisation’s commitment to diversity and inclusion, as sponsorship enables TICTeC to directly provide travel and accommodation grants for delegates from underfunded organisations operating in less open jurisdictions, with a focus on the global south.
Who attends TICTeC?
Each year around 150-250 participants from over 40 countries gather at TICTeC. They include academic researchers, data experts, software developers, designers, students, government representatives, funders, and campaigners. See the ‘Previous participants’ lists at the bottom of this page for a more detailed breakdown of TICTeC attendees.
