Obtaining an event underwriter guide - From an event sector perspective, an underwriter is an individual, company or organisation that agrees to be responsible for any loss if an event does not generate enough money to cover the cost of running the event. People sometimes use the word underwriting to mean money, goods or services that sponsors provide to support an event. To avoid confusion, this guide uses the term sponsorship for this type of support.
The bid feasibility stage starts when you receive a Request for Proposal (RFP) from the event owner seeking an organisation to host their event. The RFP should include detailed specifications about the event and the bid criteria. If it doesn't, you should ask for this information.
