AMPLIFY YOUR BRAND.
We’re celebrating our 16th year anniversary! As a valued member of the utility services and solutions industry, you are invited to participate as a sponsor and exhibitor at the upcoming in-person 2025 Oracle Utilities User Group (www.OUUG.org) community-sponsored MYOUUG conference, which will be held at the luxury four-star Grand Hyatt Nashville in Nashville, Tennessee. This thriving annual user-directed, self-funded event will feature sessions for Customer Experience & Billing Solutions, Work & Asset Management, Field Services, Advanced Meter Solutions, Grid Management Solutions, Load Analysis/Lodestar, Technology/Cloud/Analytics & AI.
Given that the user conference meetings are not funded nor organized by Oracle (we appreciate the support from the customer community leaders & partners!), your support and sponsorship are what make these quality events possible. Thank you in advance for your consideration & support!
Take part in the most visible and engaging aspects of this grassroots event through sponsorship of the conference program, Tuesday night Vendor Welcome Reception & Expo March 4, 2025, Wednesday night Offsite Social at Jason Aldean’s Rooftop March 5, 2025, industry media access, promotional giveaway items, Web presence, social media, conference mobile app, lunches & breaks, as well as session presentations (co-presented with an Oracle customer; required). Sponsor opportunities are available on a first-come, first-serve basis, though past sponsors will be given priority.
To confirm a 2025 Sponsorship, simply contact info@OUUG.org to get the process started. We can send you an online invoice for payment by card, ACH, wire or check. (Checks made payable to Oracle Utilities Users Group, 1155 Arnold Drive, C365, Martinez California, 9445 USA)
