These terms apply to all sponsorship packages (Start-up, Silver, Gold, Main) for AI Festival 2027, taking place 17–18 February 2027 at XR Labs, Bury St Edmunds, organised by Orbital Global Group Ltd.
- Reservation and hold. On expressing interest in a package, Orbital Global Group Ltd will hold your preferred tier for 7 days pending confirmation. If confirmation is not received within this period, the hold may be released and the space offered to another party.
- Contract and invoice. On confirmation, Orbital Global Group Ltd will issue a sponsorship contract and invoice. A sponsorship is not secured until the signed contract is returned and payment terms are agreed.
- Pricing and VAT. All package prices are quoted exclusive of VAT, which will be added at the prevailing rate. Early Bird and Super Early Bird rates apply only where payment (or signed contract, as agreed) is received before the relevant deadline; standard rates apply thereafter. Published rates are not retroactive to bookings made before a rate change.
- Payment terms. Invoices are payable within the terms stated on the invoice. Orbital Global Group Ltd reserves the right to reallocate or withhold a sponsor’s package, stand space, or speaking slot if payment is not received by the agreed date.
- Start-up tier. The Start-up package is offered free of charge, by application only, and subject to very limited availability. Orbital Global Group Ltd reserves sole discretion over which applicants are accepted.
- Deliverables from sponsor. Sponsors must return their logo, brand assets, and speaker bio (where applicable) within 2 weeks of signing. Late submission may result in reduced inclusion in pre-event marketing, signage, or printed/digital materials, as these are produced to production deadlines.
- Speaking and demonstration slots. Keynote and seminar slots are allocated by package tier and are subject to programme scheduling. Orbital Global Group Ltd reserves the right to alter running order, timings, or format due to circumstances beyond its control.
- Stand space. Stand sizes and positions are as specified for the sponsor’s tier. Exact stand location within the venue is at the organiser’s discretion, taking into account overall floor plan and access requirements.
- Cancellation by sponsor. Sponsorship fees are non-refundable once a signed contract is in place, except at Orbital Global Group Ltd’s discretion or where the event itself is cancelled (see clause 11).
- Reallocation. A confirmed package may not be resold, sublicensed, or transferred to another organisation without Orbital Global Group Ltd’s prior written consent.
- Event cancellation, postponement, or changes. If AI Festival 2027 is cancelled, Orbital Global Group Ltd will contact sponsors regarding refund or credit options. If the event is postponed or rescheduled, sponsorship benefits will carry over to the new date where possible; refund entitlement in this case is at Orbital Global Group Ltd’s discretion. Orbital Global Group Ltd reserves the right to alter the programme, speakers, or format due to circumstances beyond its control, without obligation to refund fees.
- Use of sponsor branding. By confirming sponsorship, you grant Orbital Global Group Ltd permission to use your company name and logo on the AI Festival website, social channels, signage, printed materials, and press releases, consistent with your package benefits, for the purposes of promoting AI Festival 2027.
