Exhibitor Prospectus

Dear Colleagues,

On behalf of the American Academy for Cerebral Palsy and Developmental Medicine (AACPDM), I invite you to participate in our 64th Annual Meeting, taking place September 22-25, 2010, at the Marriott Wardman Park Hotel in Washington, DC, the nation's capital.

The American Academy for Cerebral Palsy and Developmental Medicine is a multidisciplinary scientific society devoted to the study of cerebral palsy and other childhood onset disabilities, to promoting professional education for the treatment and management of these conditions, and to improving the quality of life for people with these disabilities. The 2010 Annual Meeting is expected to attract more than 700 healthcare professionals including individuals from the following disciplines: Physical Therapy, Pediatrics, Orthopedic Surgery, Neurosurgery, Nursing, Allied Health and other professionals involved in prevention, diagnosis and care of patients.

As an Annual Meeting participant, you will have a unique opportunity to reach key decision makers from hospitals, universities, and private practices from the United States and around the world. Sponsorship of the AACPDM Annual Meeting offers your organization high visibility and strong exposure to a captive audience. A number of non-profit agencies and residents also attend this meeting, allowing you to build local contacts.

The Annual Meeting offers many opportunities to meet with healthcare professionals, from the daily breakfasts and breaks to the Poster Reception on Thursday in the exhibit hall. Feedback from past meetings has been carefully incorporated this year to allow for maximum interface between exhibitors and participants promising an even richer experience for attendees. The AACPDM also offers a variety of sponsorship opportunities that allow you to increase awareness of your organization as a supporter of medical education. A complete list of sponsorship opportunities is available below.

Your participation is essential to the success of the 64th Annual Meeting in Washington, DC. Please take this opportunity to meet hundreds of healthcare professionals and educate them about your best products and services. Reserve your exhibit booth space early – space is expected to sell out.

Join us for this momentous occasion that promises to be our best Annual Meeting yet. I look forward to seeing you in Washington, DC!

Sincerely,


Scott Hoffinger, MD
First Vice President, AACPDM
