- Sponsor level
- The level the organizer lists the company under. When every level the event names is on the usual ladder (Platinum, Gold, Silver and the like), its place among them.
- Newsletters, podcasts
- Newsletters and podcasts where Ad Almanac has found the company’s ads. A dash means none found, not that it doesn’t buy them.
- Other events

Sponsors and levels come from the organizer’s own pages. Newsletter, podcast and event numbers are what we’ve found, not spend. If a company shows none, we haven’t seen it there, which doesn’t mean it doesn’t buy there. Partners and exhibitors aren’t in the sponsor count. Updated Nov 1, 2026. How we read sponsor lists.
