Why We Proudly Sponsor the Society for Location Analysis

Discover why Geolytix proudly sponsors the SLA, and how this free network encourages a thriving community of location analysis experts.

7th May 2026 • Career

At Geolytix we believe that data is only as powerful as the people who interpret it. That is why, for many years, we have been a dedicated sponsor of the Society for Location Analysis (SLA).


As a not-for-profit group run by practitioners for practitioners, the SLA represents the gold standard of networking and education in our field. Our partnership isn't just about sponsorship, it’s about fostering a community where retail, property, and site research experts can thrive.


The Power of Industry Integration

Location analysis is a rapidly evolving field. From exploring the AI in Location Analytics to mastering Sustainability in Planning and sharing Innovations in Global Location Planning, the SLA ensures that professionals aren't working in silos.

We support this integration because it creates a cross-fertilisation of ideas. When Site Research, Marketing, and Operations professionals come together, the entire industry becomes more innovative, more accurate, and more resilient.


Why We Encourage You to Join (Hint: It’s Free!)

Whether you are a seasoned property veteran or a student just starting out, the SLA offers unparalleled resources. If you haven't yet taken advantage of their membership, here is what you are missing:

  • A Massive Professional Network: Face-to-face networking with peers across retail, facilities, and acquisitions.
  • Career Growth: Access to job advert services, salary surveys, and find out about specialised training courses.
  • Recognising Excellence: From the Annual Student Awards to the Jon Walker Lifetime Achievement Award, the SLA celebrates the people who move this industry forward.

A Partnership Built to Last

We don’t just provide solutions, we want to support the ecosystem that makes those solutions meaningful. Our long-term commitment to the SLA is our way of ensuring that the location analysis community stays connected, informed, and ahead of the curve.
