Included in your sponsorship is access to your sponsor portal. This portal gives you access to manage your company landing page and distribute your passes. 

To access your portal, visit siliconslopes.com and select "Sign In" in the top right corner. If you have previously created an account, you can use those credentials to log in. If you’ve not yet created an account, do so using your email and create a password. 

Note: If you delegate this responsibility to a co-worker that is not currently associated with your sponsorship account, that person will not be able to access your Team; you will need to add them once you are inside the portal.

Once logged into your portal, you should see your account page. In the left-hand menu, select "My Teams". You should see your organization listed. Select "Manage" on the right, and you'll be transferred to your organization's account page. You should also see a bar at the top with your organization's name in the top left corner and "Back To My Account" in the top right corner. You can click this to go back to your personal account. 

From here, you can edit your organization's information, tickets, and team members that have access to the team page. If you delegate this responsibility to a co-worker that is not currently associated with your company account, you need to add them using the "Team Members" tab. 

Note: If you do not see your organization listed in your "My Teams" page or experience any issues accessing your company profile, please contact sponsors@siliconslopes.com
