Sponsorship, Tradeshow & Advertising

 

Why this conference?

The 2010 SPNHC & CBA-ABC Joint Conference is a nonprofit, collaborative initiative that will bring together an estimated 400-500 participants from throughout Canada, the United States and abroad.  SPNHC is an international society whose mission is improving preservation, conservation and management of natural history collections to ensure their continuing value to society. CBA/ABC serves as the national organization for botanists in Canada, including professional botanists at universities, colleges, schools, government and industry, as well as interested students, technicians and amateurs. The Canadian Museum of Nature is Canada’s leading natural sciences and natural history museum. Together, these organizations create exciting opportunities for sponsorship and tradeshow exhibit for your organization.

 

Sponsorship, Tradeshow & Advertising Opportunities:

Many events are planned during the conference, along with promotional items (e.g., conference bag and water bottle), which will provide opportunities to interact with participants from the two societies and increase your visibility and reach.  Click here for a full list of opportunities.

For all the information on sponsorship, including tradeshow exhibit and advertising, including instructions on how to register, please download the Sponsorship-Tradeshow-Advertising Information Document and Application Form.
