2027 Sponsorship Opportunities

TBR provides a fantastic promotional opportunity for your business, while also supporting Boston’s rich literary tradition. Becoming an exhibitor at the event gets your business name in front of writing and publishing industry innovators and leaders, as well as authors who are actively seeking author-centric services. Sponsors and affiliates include Porter Square Books (our presenting bookseller and Cambridge’s beloved indie bookstore), Big Five publishers, affiliate organizations like the Women’s National Book Association and The Author’s Guild, universities including Harvard and Lesley University, and non-profit organizations like the Writers Room of Boston. More join every day. We’d love to have you with us too!
