2026 ITE Great Lakes District Sponsorship

Thank you for your interest in sponsoring the ITE Great Lakes District in 2026 and allowing the district to offer more to our members. The ITE Great Lakes District is comprised of over 1,900 members across the states of Illinois, Indiana, Michigan, Minnesota, North Dakota, Ohio, South Dakota and Wisconsin.

In 2026, we will offer 3 sponsor levels that correspond to the 2026 ITE Great Lakes District (ITE GLD) Student Leadership Summit (SLS) being held in Detroit, MI on July 17-18, 2026. The ITE Great Lakes District Annual Meeting will be in combination with the ITE International Annual Meeting.

The ITE Great Lakes District Student Leadership Summit is a two-day, student-led event bringing together approximately 40 highly motivated transportation students from universities across the ITE Great Lakes District. Hosted at Wayne State University in Detroit, this summit provides a unique opportunity to connect with emerging professionals who represent the next generation of the transportation workforce—many of whom will soon be entering the job market. The event features technical presentations, student competitions, and networking sessions designed to foster leadership, innovation, and industry engagement. Sponsorship offers valuable visibility for your organization and direct access to talented students you may one day hire, while also supporting the professional development of future leaders in transportation. This summit creates meaningful connections between students and industry professionals, offering a valuable networking experience for all participants.
