Submit your request to host a LIT-affiliated event. Ensure your event aligns with our mission and values, and bring LIT’s expertise to your next gathering!

Here’s What We Look For:

To ensure each affiliated event aligns with LIT values and goals, we evaluate requests based on the following criteria:

• Alignment with LIT’s Mission: Does the event support our organizational goals, values, and mission?

• Brand Impact: Will participation positively impact LIT’s brand reputation?

• Executive Attendance: Can the Board President or Executive Director attend? If so, stipends or travel reimbursement from the requesting organization are appreciated.

• Relevance to LIT Members: Is the event relevant to current or potential LIT members and the public transit industry, with perks like free or discounted registration?

• Open Access: Events must be open to all. LIT members will receive priority; limited-spot events may not be approved.

• Sponsorship Support: Events that don’t require monetary contributions from LIT are prioritized.

• Risk Assessment: We review potential legal, financial, and operational risks.

• Board Member Support: Availability of board members for planning or on-site support is essential; the Executive Director should not be the sole coordinator.

• Policy Compliance: Events must adhere to company policies, including conflict of interest and code of ethics.

• Schedule Review: We consider any conflicts with LIT’s existing event calendar.
