Conference Sponsorship Opportunities – ESC 2026

This international gathering attracts more than 600 higher education leaders, faculty, students, and community partners who are leading change through engaged scholarship. Sponsorship offers a powerful platform to showcase your organization, connect with key decision-makers, and position your brand at the forefront of innovation, collaboration, and community impact.

The ESC Annual Conference offers a particularly good opportunity for sponsors to reach:

University and college faculty and staff members who are involved in engaged scholarship or studying the impacts of engaged scholarship;

Higher education administrators who are interested in increasing the support their institutions provide to faculty, staff members, and students to engage with communities through scholarship and evidence-based practice;

Graduate and Undergraduate students who are studying the impacts of community engagement or who are engaged in service-learning activities; and,

Community partners who are working with colleges and universities to foster and strengthen collaborations.
