Dear industry partners

In May 2015 WCPT will hold its 17th congress in Singapore, and we invite you to join us in making this an exciting, innovative and successful event. With over 5,000 physical therapy professionals from over 100 countries expected to attend, sponsoring and exhibiting at the WCPT Congress 2015 is a unique opportunity. Held only once every four years, the congress attracts an international audience of highly motivated delegates seeking the latest in research, practice and education, as well as products and services.

Benefits of sponsoring and exhibiting

Companies that are closely involved with WCPT congress find that they:

• reach a targeted and highly qualified audience

• have an exciting launch environment for new products and services

• reduce sales staff travel costs by arranging meetings and demonstrations with clients during congress

• raise company visibility among industry decision makers

Your participation plays a key role in WCPT’s efforts to deliver a high quality congress to the global physical therapy community. From an attendee’s point of view, the exhibition is the largest international physical therapy marketplace: an opportunity to discover new products, see expert demonstrations and try them out first hand. With a range of activities taking place in the exhibition, as well as the congress scientific poster displays, there will be lots to entice delegates into the exhibition halls. The congress welcome reception on the opening evening will take place in the exhibition hall for the first time – a great opportunity for a sociable start to your interaction with delegates.

We have developed a variety of sponsorship opportunities that will raise your profile with the physical therapy community. Exhibiting is a great way to engage delegates, demonstrate products and build strong, meaningful, and lasting relationships with our international audience. We encourage you to take advantage of the varied options available. Several sponsorship opportunities are available to extend your reach far beyond congress participants to thousands in the physical therapy community accessing the WCPT website and congress educational resources.

We look forward to seeing you at the WCPT Congress 2015.

Yours sincerely

Marilyn Moffat Brenda J MyersWCPT President WCPT Secretary General

Open doors to the physical therapy community

When you sponsor and exhibit at the WCPT Congress 2015, you open doors to extraordinary opportunities. Sponsors and exhibitors have the unique benefit of reaching the entire physical therapy community at a single international event.

Your participation provides an excellent opportunity to:

• generate new business with direct, face-to-face access to senior decision makers within the physical therapy community

• increase image and brand awareness in the international physical therapy community before, during, and after congress

• broaden your competitive edge by showcasing your products and services to many clients in one space in an interactive environment

• demonstrate your commitment to the profession

Act now and increase your exposure

The earlier you decide to sponsor and exhibit, the greater your exposure to the physical therapy community. An extensive promotional campaign for the WCPT Congress 2015 has already begun and includes email announcements to over 17,000 individuals who signed up for Congress Updates, as well as extensive web and social media exposure, and advertising and editorials in professional journals. Once you confirm your participation, you will be recognised on the congress website, increasing your visibility as individuals visit the website for programme and registration information.

How to participate in the WCPT Congress 2015

The following pages outline the sponsorship and exhibit opportunities available. Please review carefully to determine which opportunity is the best fit for your company. For 2015 we have introduced a new diamond level of sponsorship which will give one company premium benefits and visibility at congress.

If you have a unique sponsorship idea that you’d like to pursue, contact us to discuss the possibilities. We respect that when spending your valuable marketing budget your business requires the highest return on investment, and we are here to ensure that you succeed in all your goals.

I look forward to speaking with you and ensuring your participation at the WCPT Congress 2015 is a success!
