Annual Dinner Sponsorship

This is CFAW's most prestigious networking event of the year and a highlight of the program year. It has become the "who's who" event for the financial investment industry in the DC region and usually sells out. Last year it was attended by nearly 500 investment professionals representing leading asset managers and advisers, corporations, institutional investors, regulatory agencies and international financial institutions in the National Capital region.

This event is also an excellent business development opportunity. Whether you are building new business relationships or strengthening old ones, consider inviting some of your clients to join you. Each year more and more firms sponsor their own table and bring their clients out for an entertaining evening.

There are a variety of sponsorship packages available to accommodate marketing strategies and budgets of all sizes.
