Featured Opportunity: Congress Coffee Break Sponsorships

Sponsor one of the popular Congress Coffee Breaks for high-profile visibility with attendees as they network and recharge! Your company’s branding will be featured throughout your chosen coffee break on signage, napkins, and coffee cups. Your logo will also be featured in prominent sponsorship signage around the Congress venue.

For even more exposure on and off-site, your company’s name and logo will appear on the LCI website, in Congress emails, and in the LCI Weekly newsletter. In addition, your logo and a 75-word company description will be featured in the Congress App. You’ll also get access to the list of Congress attendees who opted into third-party communications at three key times: one month prior, two weeks prior, and within one week after Congress.

The Wednesday morning sponsorship is sold out, but there’s still time to lock in your sponsorship of the Wednesday afternoon Coffee Break, or the Thursday morning, afternoon, or full-day Coffee Breaks.

Explore details about this sponsorship and many others.

Lock in your first choice of high-impact sponsorship and/or exhibitor packages today! Contact Ilene Goldberg by email or (703) 785-9087 for more information.

TVD Workshop: Inside the 6-Week Plan

There are only a few days left to register for our exclusive six-week virtual workshop, Target Value Delivery in Action, taking place September 5 – October 10. Registration closes August 18, and only a few spots remain open, so don’t delay in reserving yours!

Here’s a full breakdown of what you can expect from our six-week program:

  • Week 1: Welcome & Intro to TVD: where cost, value, and design decisions are made together, not apart.
  • Week 2: TVD shifts the mindset: cost isn’t an afterthought, it’s a design constraint
  • Week 3: To deliver real value, we must understand the owner’s “why, ”not just the project’s “what.”
  • Week 4: Conditions of Satisfaction define success beyond scope and schedule—they anchor value in measurable terms.
  • Week 5: Great projects begin with the right team. Assembled for trust, not just roles
  • Week 6: Big Room is more than a space, it’s how Lean teams apply TVD to drive results.

Reserve your spot today and earn a $245 discount toward Learning Days at LCI Congress, where you can continue your TVD learning journey through TVD 3: Organizing for Flow and Efficiency and TVD 4: Modeling for Predictable Outcomes.
