Network Media Partners and Webvent Partner to Provide Media Sales and Marketplace Solutions that Build Association Revenues

Strategic partnership to include co-marketing of products and services

Hunt Valley, MD, August 9, 2012–

Network Media Partners, Inc and Webvent, Inc today announced a strategic partnership agreement for joint marketing and delivery of products and services to member-based associations, including existing customers of Network Media.

“Webvent’s Adaptive Media Network is an innovative, no-risk software and sales service that provides supplier-to-member media marketplaces for associations.  It is an intuitive, well designed product, and an excellent value-add for our customers,” says Chip Boyce, President of Network Media. “One huge benefit from a sales perspective is that the sales team already working with prospects, advertisers, exhibitors and sponsors is able to sell this product vs. outsourcing the sale to a 3rd party.” 

Nick Kuppers, Webvent Co-founder, adds, “Network Media’s customer base and reputation are very impressive, with the likes of Association Forum of Chicagoland and American Industrial Hygiene Association, to name a few. Our partnership with Network Media began in 2011 through a mutual customer (American Society for Training & Development), and we now extend it formally to offer the best of software and digital media sales and service to all kinds of professional and trade associations.”  The first customers have already signed up, and these new supplier-to-audience marketplaces will be announced when they launch in December.
