For firms & industry partners

Partner With Us

Tampa Bay's newest Gamma Iota Sigma chapter is looking for its founding partners — the firms that want a direct line to the region's risk, insurance, and actuarial community as it takes shape.

The talent pipeline, at the source

Gamma Iota Sigma is the insurance industry's premier collegiate talent pipeline — 177 chapters nationwide and a network of more than 35,000 members and alumni moving into risk, insurance, and actuarial careers. Partnering with the Tampa Bay chapter puts your firm in the room with them.

Founding-partner visibility

The chapter charters in 2026. Partners who step in now aren't logo #47 on a wall — they're the names Tampa Bay's GIS community remembers as the ones who helped build it.

Local, practical, personal

Sponsorship here funds real things you can see: networking mixers, student mentorship with the area's collegiate chapters, and community service across Tampa Bay.

Ways to partner

Sponsor an event

Put your name on a mixer or professional-development night — venue, food, and a few words to a room of industry people.

Annual chapter partner

Ongoing support with recognition on the site and at every event. Partnership levels are being shaped now — early partners get a say in what they include.

In-kind support

Meeting space, printing, a speaker from your leadership team — all of it moves the chapter forward and all of it is recognized.

Let's talk

Tell us what your firm wants from the partnership — recruiting, visibility, community impact — and we'll shape something that fits. No packet, no pressure, just a conversation with the founding board.

Start the conversation

Before you give: The chapter is newly formed and does not yet have its own tax-exempt determination, so gifts should not be treated as tax-deductible charitable contributions. Every dollar goes directly to chapter operations. Ask us if you need documentation for your records.

Individual giving lives on the Donate page; national-level programs (Sustaining Partners) run through GIS national.
