2025Q3 Reports: Sponsorship Chairs
ACL 2025 Sponsorship Chairs Report
The *ACL sponsorships conditions are written in the Sponsorship Booklet made available through each *ACL event website. It is updated yearly by the Sponsorship director, Chris Callison-Burch, since it regards all the *ACL events.
ACL 2025 has obtained $796,525 EURO. Most of the budget comes from recurrent sponsors which have been contacted by the Sponsorship director sometime in January. The ACL 2025 sponsorship chairs provided support in keeping track of such exchanges and sent out reminders when appropriate.
The event organizer, Lina Staggs, took care of collecting sponsor logos and shared them with the ACL 2025 Web site and conference chairs as well as with the Publication Chairs.
One of the benefits of Gold, Diamond, and Platinum sponsors is to have access to the ACL Recruitment Network.
During registration, ACL 2025 participants were given the possibility to declare whether they want:
a. some of their data (professional name, preferred name, affiliation, pronouns, country and email) to be listed in the Conference Participants list and
b. If they are interested in employment opportunities and agree to have their email shared with the sponsors
Lina Staggs took care of sharing the data in a);
The ACL 2025 sponsorship chairs created a Google Form to collect the CVs -- following the sample given by the ACL sponsorship director -- and invited all the ACL 2025 participants who expressed interest in employment opportunities and agreed to have their email shared with the sponsors (b above). The Excel file generated from the form and the directory containing the CVs have been shared with the Gold+ sponsors. So far 427 CVs have been collected, and more are expected to be uploaded. A zip file of all the CVs will be sent to the Gold+ sponsors who will ask for it.
For the future, we suggest adding the Google Form link in the registration form. The link to the Excel form generated from the Google Form and the directory where the CVs are collected could be included directly in the contract. Sharing this information ahead will facilitate the communication flow.
