Sponsorship Opportunities
Sponsorships represent a win/win
opportunity. Low registration fees makes the conference
accessible; companies obtain a low-cost public opportunity
to build good will. At the same time, a sponsoring company
sends a strong message of support. Sponsorships also offer

- Build industry relationships
through networking
- Build customer relationship
through "Symposium scholarships"
