LOS ANGELES — XBIZ is pleased to announce the official sponsors for RISE, an Adult Performer Appreciation Dinner presented by premier live cam network, LiveJasmin, set to be hosted in association with leading adult entertainment companies on Thursday, Nov. 19, in Los Angeles.
Some of the most visible brands have signed on to support the holiday season dinner that gives thanks to the performer community on behalf of participating companies for their contributions to the adult entertainment industry.
The lineup of RISE sponsors thus far includes: LiveJasmin as Presenting Sponsor; Girlfriends Films as Diamond Sponsor; SugarDVD as Platinum Sponsor; Fleshlight, ATKingdom, MindGeek, Penthouse as Gold Sponsors; and New Sensations and Metro as Silver Sponsors.
XBIZ plans to announce the venue for RISE as well as additional details in the coming weeks.
ATKingdom owner Kim Nielsen told XBIZ that the inaugural event is one that his adult company sponsored for the reason of gratitude.
“We are very happy and proud to be part of the RISE performer appreciation dinner organized by XBIZ,” Nielsen said. “Performers are the lifeblood of our industry and we are pleased to be able to be part of this special thank you for the hard work they put into being such an integral part of our production team."
Brian Shubin, the COO of Fleshlight, said that “sponsoring this event is just one small way we can show our appreciation.”
“Our commitment to the empowerment of performers has remained un-waivered since day one,” Shubin told XBIZ. “We have the great honor of working with the top performers in the business and support our Fleshlight Girls and Fleshjack Boys globally.”
Marcelo, SugarDVD's marketing manager, echoed earlier statements, noting that "we are looking forward to this new event by XBIZ.”
“We're proud to be a sponsor and help recognize the hard work of the performers,” he said.
