Support CEPA Honors

The Center for European Policy Analysis (CEPA)’s Honors Gala convenes an unparalleled network of policy makers, senior government officials, military leaders, and global influencers to celebrate the remarkable contributions over the year to advancing freedom, innovation, security, and resilience. At a moment of profound consequence for transatlantacism, and when the stakes for Ukraine, NATO, and democratic resilience around the world are precarious, our sponsors position their organization within a community that is actively shaping the future of global stability.

Sponsorship Levels and Benefits 

Sponsoring the Center for European Policy Analysis Honors Gala is a strategic and public alignment of values at a defining moment for transatlantic security. Support signals public partnership with a leading policy institution shaping the conversation on the most pressing transatlantic, defense, and technology policy issues of our time, while demonstrating visible leadership, elevating your institutional voice, the ability to access critical policy conversations with senior policymakers, military leaders, and global thought leaders, and access to relevant conversations and networking with others wanting to celebrate those making a difference in these critical matters of national and international consequence.  

Sponsorship of this distinguished evening represents far more than participation in a single event; it is a visible alignment with one of the most respected and impactful policy institutions operating at the intersection of Europe and North America. The dinner serves as a platform through which CEPA’s mission is elevated, its research amplified, and its network activated—bringing together those who define and positively influence the global security agenda.
