Be sure to see all the opportunities including Platinum, Gold, and Silver which include three, two, or one full registrations to the conference including invites to the President's Reception and banquet. These three upper most levels of sponsorship also include an exhibitor space and recognition during the meeting, in the program, and throughout the year on the WAPMS website providing the best valued outreach for your organization.
