IPA offers high-visibility sponsorship possibilities that will provide your company the chance to reach tens of thousands of avid photographers around the world. The Gala Awards Ceremony at the Beverly Hilton in Los Angeles - hosting 1,500 photography enthusiasts and stars of the craft, including potential Lifetime Achievement Award winners among the ranks of Richard Avedon, Helmut Newton and Sebastioa Salgado - is a first-of-its-kind celebration that will attract major media coverage from both the photographic and general press worldwide.

The global competition is expected to draw entries from more than 50,000 photographers each year. Accomplished professional and enthusiastic amateur work will be displayed before esteemed members of the international photography industry, including: photo editors, museum curators, gallery owners, agents and art directors that serve on both the IPA advisory board and panel of judges. Our goal is to encourage and discover new talent, to build bridges between cultures and to foster an enhanced appreciation for the photographic arts everywhere.

Your company can participate in this showcase of photographic excellence by supplying your products as prizes for the competition winners, or through more traditional sponsorship arrangements that will attach your company's name and logo to IPA events, advertising and publications.
