Sponsoring

Since ICE moved to the ExCeL centre, a stunning new venue with a completely new layout, the opportunities for sponsorship at the 2013 and show were bigger and more numerous than ever before. And the same is true for ICE 2014.

From the moment they step out of their taxi or DLR train, you can make your brand visible to thousands of ICE's international visitors with taxi island posters and station handrail banners.

As your prospective clients make their way from here to the ExCeL there are advertising opportunities including space on the external ExCeL Pyramid and in the traverse area linking the DLR station and the venue.

Within the venue itself, a multitude of advertising options are available, such as floor tiles, washrooms and eatery area branding.
