Sponsor NACTO’s annual Designing Cities Conference and lead the movement to transform urban mobility.

NACTO’s Designing Cities Conference brings together over 1,000 people passionate about advancing the state of transportation in North American cities—engineers, planners, government agency leaders, elected officials, advocates, and other transportation professionals of all career levels.

There is no better place than Designing Cities to highlight your commitment to urban transportation and connect with the public sector leaders and practitioners who plan, design, advocate for, and deliver safe, accessible, and equitable mobility.

Sponsorship is the only guaranteed way to secure and augment your staff presence at the conference, which otherwise requires an application process and is limited to three people per company.

Expand your Network and Connect with Decision Makers

More than 70% of conference attendees are city transportation and transit staff from our 100 member agencies and other public agencies. Many of these attendees are managerial level or higher, meaning you have the opportunity to directly connect with city decisionmakers.

Target Your Investments and Enhance Your Visibility

The sponsorship package options are highly customizable–allowing your organization to align your investment with your strategic goals and budget, and reach your target audience to maximize your sponsorship benefits.

Join the Conversation

Showcase your commitment to and leadership in transforming cities into places for people with safe, sustainable, accessible, and equitable transportation choices by sending your staff to the conference, tabling, and/or speaking at a Walkshop.

Make a Difference by Supporting the Movement

Our annual convening of the best minds in transportation is not possible without support from NACTO’s sponsors. Investing in the conference is an investment in the cities, transit agencies, and their collaborators around the country who are working for better streets and city transportation.
