Event Sponsor / Sponsor with Naming Rights / Named Sponsor

Explanation:
It would depend on the context of course but I think if the name is mentioned in the title of the event, building, ect. it might read better just as "sponsor"

冠：競技会や催しの呼称に、スポンサー企業などの名をかぶせること。「―大会」

http://ja.wikipedia.org/wiki/冠大会
冠大会（かんむりたいかい）とは、スポーツなどで、大会名にスポンサー協賛の企業の社名を冠したイベントのこと。大抵は「○○○(企業名)カップ」などとつくことがある。なかでもゴルフの場合は冠スポンサーが多く、「～オープン」や「～クラシック」などの名称がつく大会が多い。
