Where they've grown or pulled back

FlatSponsored 1 conference in 2026, flat from 1 in 2024.

Counted per conference. 2026 is the latest year whose conferences have mostly happened. Tiers use the best tier each year; swatches show the path, oldest first. A conference counts as pulled out only when a later event published a complete sponsor list, since most events don’t say whether their list is complete.

Once or on and off 1

No clear direction, or a gap we can’t confirm because later sponsor lists are incomplete.

Lookalikes

Companies with the most similar conference footprint: they sponsor and speak at the same conferences. Bars are cosine similarity, from 0 (nothing shared) to 1 (identical).
