TL;DR · Partnership Proposal · April 2026

She & HER × NYC PrideFest 2026

A bigger play, a better fit, and a barter that makes Pride's life easier — not harder.

We came in the door talking about AJ & Britney. We're walking back up to the door talking about She & HER — as a sponsor, as a partner, and as the team that builds the tech that makes the festival run.

01

What changed since Mar 25

Talent path

Closed.

AJ & Britney aren't available. Timing, not interest.

The rep era

Over.

The Plug is winding down client representation. She & HER is nearing launch — every hour goes there now.

Life

Hit.

A death in the family pulled me offline longer than I wanted. Thank you for holding space.

02

The pitch, in one breath

She & HER comes in as a sponsor and activation partner. In exchange, we build PrideFest's entire end-to-end technology stack — free. And we bring creators with us.

03

The trade

What we're asking for

  • ♦Sponsor listing. She & HER on the PrideFest sponsor roster.
  • ♦Promo inclusion. Mentioned across NYC Pride's channels — social, web, on-site.
  • ♦Activation footprint. Space for She & HER + creator partners to show up and do something memorable.
  • ♦Lodging. Accommodations for me and the partners during the event.

What we're giving back

  • ♦Registration.
  • ♦Sponsor & vendor portal.
  • ♦Attendee comms.
  • ♦On-site check-in.
  • ♦Post-event data.
  • ♦The full e2e tech stack — production-grade, delivered for 2026, supported through the event.
If tech isn't the need: booth activation, content capture partnership with the creators below, or whatever custom shape your team wants to design. We're flexible — we're not going to make PrideFest solve a puzzle.

05

Why this is better than the original ask

The original ask was talent at a festival — real, but narrow.

This version is a founder-led partner showing up with engineers, creators, and a tech gift that solves real operational pain — in exchange for visibility and a footprint.

It's a story PrideFest can tell. It's a story we can tell. It's one most sponsors can't.

One 20-minute call.

Re-scope. Decide if it's tech, activation, or both. Get on a path.
