What sponsorship buys
A logo is the floor of every tier. The real value is talent, credibility, and a theme no one else has.
Access to vetted talent
Screened practitioners, mostly early-to-mid career, offensive and defensive. The opt-in candidate shortlist at Platinum is the recruiter's actual prize.
Credibility by association
Backing a rigorous, practitioner-built competition signals a security-first, current brand to the people who notice.
A theme nobody else has
Total Warfare places you beside realistic energy, telecom, healthcare, finance, and defense scenarios — alignment a sector brand pays a premium for.
On every certificate, every tier
Every sponsor appears on the certificate each participant downloads, keeps, and shares — durable, travelling exposure on a credential people actually hold onto. Prominence scales by tier: Platinum largest and at the top, Gold medium, Silver grouped below.
A 2025 certificate sample is shown alongside as proof of format.

// Exclusive · One per sector
Sector Partner
Own your sector.
You are the only sponsor in your sector — energy, telecom, health, finance, or transport — with a guaranteed named track and the option to co-build a real challenge from your field. By conversation.
What We Don't Promise
So you know exactly what you are getting:
- Guaranteed hires or talent-acquisition metrics
- Bespoke deliverables outside the published tiers — the table above is the whole menu
- Speaking slots or closing-ceremony recognition
- Selling participant data. Reporting is aggregate and anonymized by default. An opt-in candidate shortlist — including named performance for participants who explicitly consent — is available at Platinum only.
