Guidelines and Eligibility

Sponsorship Level and Availability:

PMA offers three sponsorship levels for the IDP program:

1. Premier: Limited to 2 companies 
2. Signature: Limited to 3 companies
3. Supporting: Limited to 4 companies

Each level has limited availability, ensuring exclusivity and a high level of visibility for sponsors.

Exclusivity of Services:

At each sponsorship level, companies offering the same services cannot occupy the same tier. This ensures unique value and market distinction for each sponsor at their selected level.

Right of First Refusal (ROFR):

• Annual ROFR Process: At the end of each calendar year, existing Industry Development Partner at all levels will have the opportunity to renew their sponsorship for the coming year before openings are made available to other members.
• ROFR Period: 2027 ROFR ends Monday, November 30, 2026, for current Industry Development Partners. Partners are encouraged to confirm their intent within this period to secure their spot.

Open Enrollment for General Membership:

After the ROFR period concludes, any unclaimed sponsorship opportunities will become available to the general membership on a first come first serve basis. Eligible companies are welcome to apply for the available spots, adhering to the exclusivity guidelines outlined above. Members should contact Kandis Dwyer, Director of Membership, Sales & Engagement, at kandis@pma-dc.org, to learn more about the process.
