Consultative Committee – Sponsorship opportunities

Members of the Consultative Committee (CC) are entitled to sponsorship opportunities during the Postal Operations Council (POC) and Council of Administration (CA) sessions and at the various annual international postal sector events in which the UPU participates. 

The next sessions are slated from the 27th April to 8th May 2026.

1) POC/CA Sessions

Twice a year, the CC participates in the POC/CA sessions, where it can increase the visibility of its members. During these sessions, CC members have the opportunity to sponsor beverage and snack services, as well as receptions.

Stands/breakfast meetings/coffee breaks


CC members can set up a customized stand (with their logo/business cards and other promotional materials, etc.) in the lobby in front of the Heinrich von Stephan Hall (main conference room), where they can sponsor coffee breaks and distribute fresh juices or snacks to session participants. 

Note. – While CC members are free to bring along their own promotional material, they are requested to refrain from using the UPU logo in any promotional/branding material. Any mention of the partnership with the UPU should be: “Member of the UPU CC/Member of the UPU Consultative Committee”.

2) Annual Events in the International Postal Sector

CC members also have the opportunity to sponsor events held throughout the year in various countries, organized by designated operators, ministries responsible for posts, and regulators of UPU member countries. Additionally, the UPU hosts regional events that provide valuable networking and engagement opportunities.

The CC typically offers discounted sponsorship packages for these events. For more details, including information on upcoming regional events, please contact the CC Secretariat.
