The HSFF 2012 Guide is the only literature distributed at the Homeland Security Finance Forum. The Guide will include information on all presenting companies, a list of the attendees as well as an overview of the marketplace, analyses and trends. The Guide is historically referenced for several months after the event making it an attractive sponsorship and marketing opportunity.

The fundraising panel sponsor is also offered a full page advert in the HSFF 2012 Guide and four additional guest tickets.
The M&A panel is one of the best-attended sessions of the whole event. The M&A sponsor is responsible for moderating the panel and personally selecting up to four panellists to discuss the security M&A environment and how it is evolving. This is a must attend session for every delegate and is held in the last session before lunch.
The M&A panel sponsor is also offered a full page advert in the HSFF 2012 Guide and four additional guest tickets.
