Festival for Women Entrepreneurs,

About the event

The BOLDIFI Open House Festival is an annual, one-day business conference and educational experience held in Dallas, Texas (with its inaugural event set for Fall 2027). It is specifically designed for women entrepreneurs, side-hustlers, and small business owners—primarily targeting founders aged 25 to 34 who are building ventures for financial and time freedom.

Why should you sponsor?

Sponsors should support the BOLDIFI Open House Festival because it offers direct, early-stage access to a rapidly growing, highly targeted market of women entrepreneurs in one of the strongest small business regions in the nation.

Here are the primary reasons why the event represents a high-return investment for sponsors:

1. Direct Access to Early-Stage Decision Makers

• Catch Founders Before They Choose Solutions: Attendees are actively looking for honest referrals to build their business infrastructure. Sponsoring allows brands to become the default choice for banking, payment processing, software stacks, and professional services before these businesses locked into competitors.

• High-Growth Demographic: The festival targets 750 to 1,000 women founders and creators (primarily ages 25–34) who are self-taught, digitally native, and building businesses for financial and time freedom.

2. High-Impact Location & Market Demand

• Capitalizing on Texas Business Growth: Texas ranks as the #1 state in the U.S. for women-owned businesses (41% of Texas businesses are women-owned), and the Dallas–Fort Worth metro area ranks #2 nationally for growth in women business owners.

• Bridging the Regional Opportunity Gap: Major business conferences are traditionally concentrated in New York, Los Angeles, and Miami. Supporting this festival taps into a massive, underserved Southern market hungry for close-to-home business resources.

3. "Teach, Don't Just Exhibit" Engagement Model

• Interactive Value Creation: Unlike traditional trade shows where sponsors stand passively behind tables, festival sponsors are integrated directly into the curriculum.

• Thought Leadership & Mini-Lessons: Depending on the sponsorship tier, brands can deliver 20-minute mini-lessons, host interactive panel keynotes, or lead activations inside themed module halls (such as Systems & Operations or Sponsorships & Alternative Funding).

4. Direct Lead Generation & Measurable ROI

• Actionable First-Party Data: Ticket buyers answer a 4-question registration survey detailing their state, industry, business stage, and specific tools or services they plan to need in the next 12 months. These opted-in survey insights travel directly with sponsor leads.

• Multi-Channel Media Exposure: Sponsorship tiers include guaranteed placements across fixed marketing inventory, including up to 36 social media posts, 18 targeted email campaigns, 9 paid ad campaigns, and 3 regional press releases.

• Comprehensive Post-Event Reporting: Every sponsor receives an impact report within 30 days detailing registration counts, attendance, opt-in rates, survey results, and digital campaign metrics.

5. Category Exclusivity & Long-Term Partner Perks

• Locked-In Competitive Advantage: Top sponsorship levels (Title and Main Stage) include strict category exclusivity, ensuring direct competitors cannot sponsor at any level.

• Founding Sponsor Rates: Year-one sponsors who renew lock in 2027 pricing for the 2028 and 2029 annual festivals.
