B2B Telemarketing – Event Sponsor Lead Generation

ABOUT US
Cyber Risk International (CRI.ie) is Platinum Sponsor of the European Digital Governance Summit (EDGS), hosted by the ICTTF.org International Cyber Threat Task Force at the Mansion House, Dublin on 25 November 2026 (digitalgovernance.eu). It is a one-day, invitation-led summit for senior leaders of organisations regulated under DORA and NIS2 — boards and management bodies, no sales pitches from the stage.

We need an experienced B2B telemarketer or small agency to identify and qualify companies interested in sponsoring or partnering with the summit, and pass warm leads to our events manager. A limited number of sponsor and partner slots are available, so this campaign needs to start immediately and move quickly.

THE WORK
We supply a target list of companies — cybersecurity, GRC, legal, consulting and technology vendors that serve the financial services and regulated sectors. The list contains company names only; no contacts, emails or phone numbers.

You build the contact list, identifying and reaching the right person at each company — typically the Head of Marketing, Events Manager, Partnerships or Business Development lead.

Your job is to qualify interest, not close. When a company is interested, you email them the sponsor brochure from an ICTTF email address we provide, copying in our events manager, who follows up to arrange a call and take the sales conversation forward. Where a call doesn't connect, follow-up emails using our templates are fine.

Success metric: number of qualified, interested companies who have received the brochure with our events manager copied in, plus a clean contact list handed back to us at the end.

WHAT WE PROVIDE
Target company list, sponsor brochure / partner prospectus, call brief and talking points, one-page summit overview, an ICTTF email address, email templates, and a weekly check-in.

WHO WE'RE LOOKING FOR
- Proven B2B telemarketing / lead-generation experience, ideally selling into or on behalf of the cybersecurity, technology or events sector.
- Comfortable reaching marketing and partnership decision-makers and getting past gatekeepers.
- Fluent, native-level English with a clear, professional telephone manner. Experience calling into the Irish and UK markets is strongly preferred.
- Able to work Irish/UK business hours (GMT/IST).
- Familiarity with the cybersecurity or financial services sector is a strong advantage but not essential — we will brief you fully.
- Experience with HubSpot (or similar CRM) and clean, structured reporting.
- GDPR-aware: contact sourcing and outreach must comply with GDPR and applicable e-privacy rules for B2B contact. Please describe in your proposal how you source contacts and stay compliant.

REPORTING
Weekly report in a shared spreadsheet or CRM: contacts identified, calls made, outcomes, brochures sent, follow-ups scheduled.
All contact data gathered during the project belongs to CRI/ICTTF and is handed over in full on completion.

COMMERCIALS
We want to price this on output, not time. Please quote a fixed price for a batch of 100 target companies.

- A "target" is one named decision-maker (marketing, events, partnerships or business development) at a company on our list. Building the named contact list from our company list is included in the batch price.
- A target counts as "worked" once you have made a minimum of three call attempts on different days, plus one follow-up email where a call did not connect, and logged the outcome.
- The batch is complete when all 100 targets have been worked and the contact list and outcome log have been handed over.
- Please state the timeframe you would need to complete a batch of 100, and the number of qualified leads (brochure sent, events manager copied) you would expect from it.
- We are open to a performance bonus per qualified lead on top of the batch price — suggest a structure in your proposal.

If the first batch delivers, we will roll the contract on in further batches up to the event on 25 November 2026, so please indicate your capacity. Start: immediately (September 2026).

IN YOUR PROPOSAL, PLEASE INCLUDE
1. Relevant experience — particularly outreach to marketing or partnership teams in the technology, cybersecurity or events sector.
2. How you source and verify contact details, and how you manage GDPR compliance.
3. Your price per batch of 100 target companies, the timeframe to complete it, and expected qualified leads.
4. A short voice sample or willingness to do a 10-minute call before we award the project.
5. Availability during Irish/UK business hours and earliest start date.

Applications that clearly address the points above will be prioritised.
