Major corporations often don't want to seem like they're taking one side politically, so they either sponsor both conventions, or neither.
Conventions could see new sponsorsThe Democratic and Republican conventions this summer are the first fully in-person conventions since the 2016 election.
Democratic convention organizers in April said if corporations had any reluctance to back the RNC, it hasn't hampered Chicago's efforts to lure donors.
Microsoft in 2012 contributed over $1.5 million in a mix of in-kind and cash contributions to the Republican convention.
JPMorgan donated $200,000 to the 2012 Republican convention and didn't write a check for the 2016 event.
