2 Introduction The Board of Directors of the Association of Corporate Counsel South Florida Chapter (ACCA-SFL) invites you to participate in its 2014 Sponsorship Program. ACCA-SFL is the pre-eminent organization of and for in-house counsel in South Florida. ACCA-SFL is focused on meeting the unique professional needs of over 400 in-house attorneys in Miami-Dade, Broward, and Palm Beach Counties. ACCA-SFL offers its members outstanding continuing legal education programming, networking functions, social events, and pro bono and community service opportunities. ACCA-SFL s Board of Directors is pleased to offer you the opportunity to participate in programming planned for The major events offered in 2014 are outlined below. ACCA-SFL Golf & Spa CLE ACCA-SFL introduced its Inaugural Golf & Spa CLE at the beautiful PGA National Resort & Spa in Palm Beach Gardens in The event is relocating to the historic Biltmore Hotel in Coral Gables on May 2, The location isn t all that is changing this is a much more exclusive event for Sponsors, with the Sponsor receiving Presented By designation and exclusively presenting all of the morning CLE. The Hospitality Sponsor will present the lunchtime CLE. The format will remain the same, with a half day of CLE programming in the morning, followed by the option to play 18 holes of golf, take a golf clinic, or rejuvenate at the spa. All participants will then regroup for a networking cocktail hour and presentation of awards. Progressive Dinners Last year s Progressive Dinner was such a success, we ve cloned it! We re now offering double the opportunity to host ACCA-SFL members and other in-house attorneys in your firm s offices (or conveniently located venue) in both Palm Beach County and Miami-Dade County. Like last year, the Progressive Dinner is limited to 3 Sponsors for each location. The Premier Sponsor will host the first course of cocktails and appetizers, and have the opportunity to present a CLE. The Dinner Sponsor will host the next course, followed by the Dessert Sponsor. All Sponsors will be given a theme to follow in order to facilitate networking and at the end of the evening, an award will be given for the Sponsor that best represented the chosen theme. The Sponsorship fees for this event are significantly reduced to reflect absorption of food and beverage costs by each Sponsor. Sponsors for the Progressive Dinner must be in close geographic proximity to one another. Preference will be given to Sponsors within the same building or within short walking distance of one another. 5th Annual CLE ACCA-SFL introduced its first full day CLE conference in 2010, and its success has continued to increase with each passing year. Attendance has increased annually since its inception, with more than 170 lawyers in attendance at the 4th Annual CLE held September 20, 2013 at the Seminole Hard Rock Hotel & Casino in Hollywood. We plan to bring the back to the same location in September or October 2014, expand CLE topic selections and increase networking opportunities throughout the day. This is ACCA-SFL s most popular and best attended event! Note: ACCA-SFL s sponsorship opportunities are limited in quantity. A preference period of one week will be held November 4-10, 2013 for 2013 Sponsors. Beginning November 11, 2013, sponsorship opportunities are on a firstcome, first-served basis.
