ICONIC THAIMAI 2026 — Coimbatore

One Weekend · Three Events

Not one event. Three, sharing one ground and one audience.

ICONIC THAIMAI 2026 brings together an awards night, a lifestyle expo and a world-record attempt across two days in Coimbatore — so a single partnership reaches an awards-room of achievers, a shopping crowd of families, and a mass public formation.

The Awardees

200+ entrepreneurs will walk on stage to collect an award.

This is not an audience that was invited. It is an audience that was selected — and that brings its families, its teams and its networks with it. Awardees photograph, post and reshare recognition far more than ordinary attendees share an event. For a sponsor, that is the difference between being seen and being remembered.

Plan Benefits

What you actually get back
from each plan.

Every sponsorship deck lists what you receive. This page explains what each item is worth to your business — what it does for your brand, your leads and your board report. Read the right-hand column: that is the part that matters.

Diamond Partner

Own the movement · 1 position only

Investment₹5,00,000

What you receive

Presenting name — the event carries your brand in its title across every banner, press release, ticket and post
Category exclusivity — your competitors cannot buy in at any tier
Diamond video showcase + stage address on both days, to a seated house
12 named creators from the roster · ~3.5M followers addressed
5 dedicated content assets — brand film, founder interview, 3 reels
600 minimum opt-in leads, delivered within 72 hours
Largest logo inside the aerial formation frame
Front + sleeve of all 3,000 participant T-shirts
20' × 20' activation zone, both days
2 award categories presented in your name
Hosted awards table for 10 · unlimited LED slots

What it does for your business

Permanent association. When anyone recalls this record in five years, they recall your brand with it. Naming rights are the only benefit that cannot be out-spent later.
A blocked category. For the price of one sponsorship you also buy your competitor's absence from the biggest women's event in the district.
A content library you own. Five finished assets — usable in your own ads, dealer meets, annual report and recruitment for years afterwards.
Measurable pipeline. 600 consented leads with name, mobile, city and stated interest is a number your sales head can forecast against.
A board-ready CSR story. An adjudicated world record plus a documented women's initiative — third-party verified, not self-declared.

Best value if: you want the single loudest position in Coimbatore this year and you sell to women — hospitals, jewellery, textiles, banking.

Hosted awards table for 6 · 12 LED slots per day

What it does for your business

You own your category. The single most persuasive line in any partnership — no direct competitor appears anywhere on the ground or in the content.
A named award. Your brand is attached to recognition rather than advertising, and every winner reshares the moment for you.
Three reusable assets at roughly half the Diamond investment — the best content-per-rupee position in the deck.
300 qualified leads from an activation zone twice the size of Gold.
Two audiences, one cost. An awards room on Saturday, a mass ground on Sunday.

Best value if: you have a direct local competitor you want locked out, and you need content you can run after the event.

What it does for your business

The efficiency pick. Lowest cost per person reached of any tier that still includes the aerial frame, creators and committed leads.
You are in the photograph. Your logo appears in the image that travels — the one benefit money cannot buy after the day.
150 leads plus two days of face-to-face selling from a 10' × 10' zone.
Stage time without a stage budget. Felicitation puts your representative in front of the room and into the event photography.

Best value if: this is your first event sponsorship and you want proof it works before committing to a top tier next season.

What it does for your business

Two full days of trading at a fraction of a normal exhibition cost — the stall alone recovers much of the fee.
Genuine association with a world record and an awards platform, in every photograph taken at the backdrop.
A creator post reaching an audience you could not buy at this price.
A seat in the room. Two places at the awards night puts you beside 200+ entrepreneurs for an evening.

Best value if: you are a growing or women-led business that wants floor presence and association rather than mass visibility.

Category Exclusivity

What your brand would actually do on the ground.

Category	Exclusivity	Activation that actually works
Maternity & women's hospital	Diamond	A free health screening zone — haemoglobin, blood pressure, BMI, bone density. Every screening is a consented lead with a clinical reason to follow up. The formation is a womb; no other category can claim that alignment.
Jewellery	Diamond / Platinum	A try-on and photo studio with professional lighting. Women photograph themselves wearing the product and publish it. Gold-savings sign-ups at the desk.
Textiles, saree & apparel	Diamond + Platinum	A style corner on the expo floor and a fashion segment on the awards-night stage. Coimbatore and Tirupur are the industry — this is a home fixture.
Beauty, wellness & personal care	Platinum	An express treatment bar running five-minute services across both days. High volume, high sampling, natural lead capture.
Bank, gold loan & insurance	Gold	A women's savings and micro-insurance desk with on-the-spot account opening. Regulated products convert extremely well face to face.
Education & skilling	Gold	Career and course counselling. School and college girls attend with their mothers — the two people who jointly make the admission decision.
Automobile	Gold	Women-only test-drive slots and a driving-confidence session. Differentiated, and highly filmable.
FMCG, food & beverage	Silver	Sampling at scale, plus a cooking or tasting demonstration on the expo stage.
Home, décor & appliances	Silver	A live demonstration zone with an EMI desk. The household decision-maker is in front of you.
