Connect Marquette was created by the Lake Superior Community Partnership in 2010 as a non-profit professional development organization. As a volunteer-run non-profit organization, we are actively searching for community businesses interested in connecting to the community and increasing exposure to commit to a yearly sponsorship with Connect Marquette. Sponsorship includes multiple tiering level options for promotion at flagship events like the Iron Range Roll and the Connect Professional Development Conference happening throughout the calendar year.
Sponsorship is more than just exposure
- Provide your employees the opportunity to get involved in Connect Marquette by attending our events, making connections with others in the community, and by volunteering at different service events we host throughout the year.
- Sponsorships help contribute to the local Marquette County community by funding free race registration for children at Iron Range Roll, our annual Adopt-A-Family event, and more!
- Provide networking, professional development, and leadership opportunities, and building relationships throughout the Marquette County community.
Support Just the Connect Conference
- Provide your employees the opportunity to get involved in Connect Marquette by attending our Professional Development Conference with sessions designed to offer valuable insights at every stage of an employee’s career, with flexible topics that are relevant across a wide range of industries and experience levels.
