Sponsors

The International Committee of Sports for the Deaf (ICSD) offers two types of sponsorship opportunities. 

The highest visibility sponsorships are the main sponsorships and co-sponsorships for the Summer and Winter Deaflympics and the World Deaf Championships. Other sponsorships are accepted through membership in the ICSD Business Club.

Sponsorships
A main ICSD sponsorship is based on an individual agreement between the ICSD and a sponsoring company providing global visibility and exposure through Summer and Winter Deaflympics and other World Deaf Championship events. This includes media exposure, in general, as well as exposure in media specifically targeting the global deaf community. In addition, the sponsor will be able to make use of ICSD symbols and athletes in marketing, customer relations and other business relations.  

This may include:

  • Full commercial rights for the Summer Deaflympics and/or the Winter Deaflympics
  • "Official Sponsor" rights for games
  • Use of ICSD name and logo in advertising
  • Sponsorship and advertising rights at games
  • "Official web sponsorship"
  • Licensing and merchandising rights
  • Official travel and transportation sponsorships

ICSD Business Club
Minor sponsors may join our Business Club. Members receive exposure through placement and display of their logos and ads in printed and electronic Summer and Winter Deaflympics media and at Summer and Winter Deaflympics events.

In addition, each sponsor may sponsor ICSD awards in the company name and may have its name incorporated into ICSD seminars and other events.

We offer Bronze, Silver, Gold and Platinum memberships, with each category defining a level of financial commitment.
