SPONSORSHIP AND EXHIBITING
Welcome from the Scottish Fundraising Conference and Awards Chair
The Scottish Fundraising Conference is a major event offering access to two keynote plenary sessions, and a selection of up to XX diverse sessions from XX speakers. The Scottish Fundraising Awards celebrate and honour excellence in fundraising, while recognising the achievements of professionals who support leading charities, voluntary organisations, and social enterprises across Scotland. These fundraisers play a crucial role in delivering essential services to communities, making a real difference in the lives of many.
We return in 2026 to the DoubleTree by Hilton Glasgow Central on 22 and 23 September, with the awards ceremony taking place on the evening of Tuesday 22 September. The event once again promises to be an enriching experience for fundraisers, offering valuable opportunities to learn, network, and celebrate the fundraising community.
#ScotConf is the largest gathering of fundraisers outside London, providing a unique platform for professionals, charities, and partners from across Scotland and beyond to connect through sponsorship, exhibitions, and networking. Our partners consistently benefit from engaging directly with delegates through our highly popular expo, which always sells out, as well as from the brand exposure offered by our sponsorship packages. We also offer multi-year partnership opportunities for those interested in long-term collaboration.
The Scottish Fundraising Conference values its long-term partnerships with inspiring organisations, showcasing the importance of this event within the fundraising sector. We hope you will join us in 2026 for Scotland’s premier fundraising event, and we would love to discuss how you can be part of this exciting opportunity.
Sponsorship and exhibition packages are now available. For more information, please contact the conference support team at scotconf26@conferencecare.com, who will be happy to assist you.

"The thing that stands out above all else is the quality of the conference. Whether it’s the speaker sessions, exhibition spaces, networking opportunities or the fundraising awards, all elements of the event are delivered to the highest standard, making for a memorable two days.
We were fully supported throughout the sponsorship process, and the organising committee went above and beyond to fully integrate justrunning.com into the event."
THINK
"THINK has been a sponsor of the Scottish Conference for many years and the event is one of our most valuable sponsorship relationships. The conference provides us with an opportunity to meet with the Scottish fundraising community and the exposure our team and our brand get, both to delegates on site and through the conference’s social media activation, is exceptional."
Recognition Express
"We’ve been very happy sponsoring the Chartered Institute of Fundraising Scottish Fundraising Conference and plan to continue doing so. The Conference has directly helped us grow our brand presence in Scotland. It’s always such a warm environment—perfect for catching up with old friends and making new professional connections.
The setup is excellent for exhibitors; attendees spend quality time in the hall, ensuring breaks are always busy and productive on our stand. It is a standout event with great energy. We wouldn't hesitate to recommend sponsorship to others looking to support the sector."
