professionals and this year promises to be no exception.

to guarantee our attendees and sponsors a most memorable evening! This event
will infuse the flavor of the destination with an evening of entertainment, awards
and an incredible after party, all designed to drive viable results into our hosting
organizations.
Listed below are the incredible opportunities that await you as a sponsor of the
2011 Phoenix Awards. Come “Play 4 Keeps” with us! The date for this wonderful
