Where they've grown or pulled back
DownNothing recorded in 2026; sponsored 1 conference in 2025.
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.
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).
