VEMA's Sponsorship ProgramVEMA is pleased to announce our 2026-2027 Sponsorship Program, offering a wide array of sponsorship and advertising opportunities throughout the year. When your sponsorship purchases add up to the sponsorship levels below, you receive additional and exclusive benefits. All sponsorship items benefit the emergency management professionals of the commonwealth by providing professional development and training opportunities as well as scholarships for students and professionals. We hope that you will take this opportunity to invest in the development of our emergency management community while you market and share your products and services to those directly involved in emergency management, public safety, healthcare, education, and the private sector fields from across Virginia who are responsible to prepare for, mitigate against, respond to, and recover from disasters. The 2027 Virginia Emergency Management Symposium will be held March 8-11, 2027, at Kalahari Resort, 6109 Patriot Hwy, Woodford, VA 22580. We expect the symposium to hit maximum capacity as we have seen growth in attendance year over year. Attendees represent a broad cross-section of the emergency management community, including emergency managers and representatives from local, state, and federal government, colleges and universities, healthcare, and the private sector, as well as public safety and public policy officials. The vendor hall will be available for set up from 3:00 – 6:00 pm on Monday, March 8, with a ribbon cutting to be held to open the vendor hall at 6:30 pm that evening, followed by a reception from 6:30 – 8:30 pm. Vendor hall hours are: Monday, March 8: 6:30 – 8:30 pm and Tuesday, March 9: 7:30 am – 1:30 pm and 5:15 – 6:15 pm; exhibitor teardown begins no later than 6:30 pm on March 9th. Vendors who also sponsor at one of the levels below will have signage for their booth in vendor hall recognizing them. All meal sponsors will also be recognized on signage during that meal.
