Become a URISA Partner

URISA – The Association for GIS Professionals – is your direct connection to key decision makers in local government GIS; the individuals who drive the adoption of technology within their organizations; the past, current and future influencers in GIS.

URISA invites your participation as a Corporate or Business Partner.

A partnership with URISA will raise your organization’s visibility, facilitate the exchange of information and ideas, and build relationships with the Who’s Who in GIS. The partnership is much more than sponsoring a conference. You will have a seat at the table in shaping URISA’s agenda with a direct link to the Board of Directors. Network with URISA’s leadership and share valuable perspectives on industry issues. Capitalize on the opportunity to exchange ideas and propose programs that benefit both your organization and that of the URISA membership and GIS Community as a whole.

The opportunities for engagement are limitless and the levels of partnership were designed to accommodate a wide range of budgets and resources. Learn more below or contact Executive Director, Wendy Nelson (847-824-6300, wnelson@urisa.org).
