Overview
The Sponsors section is where you manage one or more sponsor profiles you wish to display on your Event Portal.
Use this section to promote your sponsors and connect their brands to your event's attendees by adding sponsor logos and optional banner ads to your event portal.

Click the +Sponsor button to create a new sponsor.
Fill in as many details as you have for the sponsor, upload a logo, and optionally set banner ads if you have them.

Displaying Sponsor Profiles on the Event Portal
Sponsor profiles can be displayed on your Event Portal. By default, a Sponsors button is added to the Event Portal > Home page.
If the Sponsors button does not appear on your Event Portal, go to the Event Manager App > Sponsors section > Settings tab and make sure the Sponsors feature is enabled, and that the default "Sponsors" button label was not changed.
