SPONSOR and EXHIBITOR information

Invitation to SPONSOR

Dear Sponsor/Exhibitor,

We would like to invite you to become a sponsor or exhibitor at the Sociolinguistics Symposium 2026.

The Sociolinguistics Symposium is one of the leading international conferences in the field of Sociolinguistics. It brings together researchers and leading scholars from around the world who engage critically with the social aspects of language. This is a fantastic opportunity to position yourself amongst these scholars and academics, to demonstrate the role that your organization has to play in empowering, developing and supporting the industry as a whole. Your presence at the conference would enhance the programme and as well as your brand as a whole.

As detailed below, we have a number of sponsorship opportunities available for your selection. Key components of the packages are the active marketing and branding opportunities for both your company and the products you promote.

Once you have decided on your package, kindly contact the conference organisers: tarryn@millenniumtravel.co.za
We can also assist should you have any special needs or requirements or would like further information.

We value your contributions and participation to ensure a successful conference in July.

Yours sincerely, 

Sociolinguistics Symposium 2026 Organising Committee
