Associations get just three percent of the $18 billion corporate sponsorship market. A big reason why the percentage is so low is because associations are not offering what sponsors are looking for, posits a new study by IEG, a Chicago-based sponsorship consulting and research firm.

market, the study concludes.

Barbara Czernaik, Long-Time McCormick Place Employee, Passes
IAEE
Share
  
Barb worked as an administrative assistant to general managers from the late '60s until 2003. She held this position throughout her tenure at McCormick Place working for more than one general manager
— with Tom Mobley being the last GM she worked for. She was a wonderful friend and colleague who was known by many customers who do business on our show floors. It is interesting to note that she was quite often an important resource as an in-house historian able to provide dates and recount events going back to the '60s without a moment's hesitation. She will be missed by all whose paths she crossed while working at McCormick Place. We will not soon forget her signature laugh and warm
smile. She was the recipient of the Christifidelis Award and member of St. Barbara Parish Council, Coordinator of Eucharistic Ministers, St. Barbara Senior Citizens, St. Barbara Altar Rosary Sodality and Liturgy Committee. She is survived by many friends and family members. In lieu of flowers, please contribute to St. Barbara Church, +1 (773) 927-6424.
