Sponsorship Opportunities

Invitation

We invite your organisation to sponsor the 2026 IIBA Skills Development Group Festival of Business Analysis, the premier event for business analysts in Australasia.

The festival will commence with a 3 day online program, followed by one week of in-person sessions across Australia and New Zealand. Building on the success of 2025, which attracted 1,000 professionals, this year’s event promises to be even more impactful.

The festival draws a diverse audience of business analysts, IT specialists, data analysts, process analysts, product owners, agile specialists, systems analysts and potentially other disciplines including testers and software engineers from a wide range of industries, including IT, finance, healthcare, government, telecommunications, manufacturing, retail, energy, insurance, education, and consulting. Delegates attend to expand their knowledge, grow their networks, and uncover new opportunities within business analysis.

This event presents a unique opportunity for your organisation to showcase your brand, engage with key decision-makers, and elevate your visibility within a highly engaged and influential community.

On this page, you will find details of the available sponsorship opportunities. Alternatively, we would be happy to discuss tailored packages that align with your business objectives and maximise the value of your participation.
