Set Up Company Groups That Appear in the Menu
The Companies feature in Cadence allows you to organize companies into logical groups for easier navigation and management. Through the Companies Menu, you can create company groups based on sponsorship tiers, industry types, or other classifications, making it simpler for attendees to find relevant organizations and for administrators to manage company relationships.
When to use
When organizing sponsors by tier levels (Gold, Silver, Bronze)
When categorizing companies by industry or product type
When creating specialized exhibitor sections
When managing large numbers of companies at your event
Before you start
You must have System Administrator or Event Manager permissions to create and manage company groups. Companies must already exist in your event before they can be assigned to groups.
How to do it
Log in to your Cadence Admin account.
Navigate to your event dashboard.
Select "Companies" from the left sidebar menu.
Click on "Company Groups" in the submenu.
If you don't see Company Groups, make sure the Companies feature is enabled in your event menu settings.
Click the "+" button to create a new company group.
Enter a name for your group in the "Name" field.
Choose descriptive names that clearly indicate the type of companies in each group.
Add a description that explains the purpose or criteria of this group.
Upload a group image if desired (optional).
Set the display order number to control where this group appears in the list.
Lower numbers appear higher in the list, with 1 being the topmost position.
Click "Save" to create the company group.
Select the newly created group from the company groups list.
Click the "Companies" tab to view and manage companies in this group.
Click the "+" button to add companies to this group.
Select either "Single Company" or "Multiple Companies" based on your needs.
Choose the companies you want to add from the dropdown or search field.
Companies must already exist in your event before they can be added to groups.
Click "Save" to add the selected companies to the group.
Verify that the companies now appear in the group's company list.
The number of companies assigned to each group is displayed in the company groups list view.
Troubleshooting
If companies are not appearing in groups:
Confirm that the companies have been properly created in your event
Check that you have saved your changes after adding companies to the group
Verify that the Companies feature is enabled in your event menu
