CROSS-PROMOTION GLOBAL EVENT PARTNER

ABOUT OUR GLOBAL EVENT PARTNER — OMAINTEC

OMAINTEC (the Arab Asset, Facility and Maintenance Management Council, formerly the Arab Council for Operations and Maintenance) is a non-profit registered in Switzerland (Lugano), operating across the Arab world to raise operations and maintenance standards, with a regional liaison office in Riyadh. Its annual conference — the International Asset, Facility & Maintenance Management Conference — is now in its 24th year, drawing government bodies, regional utilities, and industrial operators from across the GCC and beyond.

 

The next edition runs 17–19 January 2027 in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia. Institutional information: omaintec.org · Conference registration & sponsorship: omaintec.com · Email: info@omaintec.org. Final OMAINTEC dates and venue are confirmed independently by OMAINTEC and may change — always verify current details at omaintec.com or omaintec.org before finalising any commitment.

MULTI- YEAR PARTNER PROGRAMME

IMA-WMF and OMAINTEC share a working history rather than a one-off arrangement — the forums ran as coinciding editions in 2022 and 2024, and OMAINTEC is listed today as IMA-WMF2026's official Cross-Promotion Partner. Platinum, Gold, and Partner sponsors may build on that relationship by extending their commitment to OMAINTEC 2027 (17–19 January, Jeddah) as a bundled agreement.

 

Each organisation applies its own 15% reduction independently: your IMA-WMF2026 tier price is fixed as shown above, while the equivalent OMAINTEC 2027 sponsorship package — inventory, tier equivalence, and final pricing — is selected and confirmed directly by OMAINTEC's organising committee. For current OMAINTEC packages, contact OMAINTEC directly via omaintec.com. Full terms below.

Frequently Asked Questions

What happens if I confirm after the early-bird deadline?

Standard rates (10% higher, shown alongside the early-bird price on every tier) apply from 1 September 2026. Partner pricing is negotiated directly and isn't affected by the deadline. Partner, Platinum, Gold and Silver slots remain subject to availability regardless of date.

How and when will I be invoiced?

IMA issues an invoice in EUR once your tier is confirmed in writing. The Sponsorship Team will confirm exact payment terms during onboarding

What does the complimentary IMA Membership include?

Each delegate pass includes a 1-year individual IMA membership (Leader, Professional, or Community, according to tier) — global community access, research studies, publications, and member-only webinars.

Is there a deadline for submitting our logo and branding assets?

To guarantee inclusion in the printed programme and signage, logos and brand assets should reach the Sponsorship Team as soon as your tier is confirmed. The team can confirm the current production deadline.

Is there exhibition space at the venue?

The Airport Tower Hotel does not include dedicated exhibition space. Visibility instead comes through branding, delegate passes, and the digital and newsletter placements built into each tier.

Can I combine my tier with OMAINTEC 2027?

Platinum, Gold, and Partner sponsors can extend to OMAINTEC 2027 under the Multi-Year Partner Programme above. OMAINTEC confirms its own package, inventory, and pricing directly.

What if I need to withdraw or postpone after confirming?For the Multi-Year Partner Programme, see the Terms & Conditions below. For standalone sponsorship, contact the Sponsorship Team directly to discuss your options.

APPENDIX — FOR REFERENCE

TERMS & CONDITIONS — MULTI-YEAR PARTNER PROGAMME

  1. IMA-WMF2026 and OMAINTEC 2027 are organised independently by the International Maintenance Association (IMA) and the Arab Asset, Facility and Maintenance Management Council (OMAINTEC) respectively. Each organisation governs the content, logistics, and sponsorship inventory of its own event, and neither acts as agent, partner, or joint venturer of the other.

  2. IMA makes no representation, warranty, or guarantee regarding OMAINTEC's pricing, inventory, tier equivalence, scheduling, or performance of OMAINTEC 2027. Sponsors are responsible for confirming these details directly with OMAINTEC before relying on them.

  3. The bundled discount applies only once both events are confirmed in writing with each organising body; sponsorship of IMA-WMF2026 alone does not automatically extend to OMAINTEC 2027, and vice versa.

  4. The Programme is available to Platinum, Gold, and Partner tier sponsors only, and is non-transferable to another organisation without written consent from both IMA and OMAINTEC.

  5. IMA-WMF2026 fees are invoiced in EUR under IMA's standard payment terms. OMAINTEC 2027 fees are invoiced separately by OMAINTEC under its own currency and payment terms. Each organisation is responsible solely for its own invoicing, collection, and refunds.

  6. Should a sponsor withdraw from either event, the bundled discount is forfeited and standard standalone pricing applies to the remaining event; no refund or credit is owed by the organisation from whose event the sponsor did not withdraw.

  7. Both organisations reserve the right to reschedule or relocate their respective events for reasons beyond their reasonable control (force majeure), without liability beyond a pro-rated credit toward a future edition of that same organisation's own event.

  8. IMA's liability arising from this Programme, however characterised, is limited in all cases to the amount actually paid to IMA for IMA-WMF2026 sponsorship, and excludes indirect, consequential, or reputational loss. IMA accepts no liability for any act, omission, delay, cancellation, or non-performance by OMAINTEC.

  9. This agreement and any dispute arising from IMA-WMF2026 sponsorship is governed by Swiss law, with exclusive jurisdiction in Switzerland. OMAINTEC 2027 sponsorship terms are governed separately under the jurisdiction stated in OMAINTEC's own sponsorship agreement, and nothing in this Programme creates joint or several liability between IMA and OMAINTEC.

  10. If any provision of this Programme is held invalid or unenforceable, the remaining provisions continue in full force and effect.
