EXHIBITOR INFORMATION
2008 ANNUAL MEETING
North Pacific Surgical Association cordially invites you to exhibit
at our 95th Annual Meeting being held on November 14-15, 2008 at
the Grand Hyatt Hotel in Seattle. NPSA was founded in Portland,
Oregon in 1912 and is one of the oldest surgical societies in the
United States and Canada. We have a membership of over 330 elected
surgeons from the Pacific Northwest (Alberta, British Columbia,
Oregon and Washington) with caucuses in Portland, Tacoma, Seattle,
Spokane, Victoria/Alberta and Vancouver, B.C. General surgeons
are our primary audience, with an expected attendance of 125 at
this meeting.
The 2008 scientific meeting will present approximately 24 clinical
and scientific research papers in areas of basic science and clinical
surgery, oncology, trauma, critical care, colorectal and breast
surgery, laparoscopic surgery, bariatric surgery and others. Papers
are subsequently published in The American Journal of Surgery.
You can review abstracts from prior meetings on our website at
www.nopacsurg.org . Continuing medical education credit will be
provided by the American College of Surgeons, and by the Royal
College of Physicians and Surgeons of Canada. Our visiting professor
this year will be Dr. J. Patrick O’Leary, a nationally known
surgical educator and Chairman and Professor Emeritus at Louisiana
State University.
As an exhibitor, you can purchase a display table and registration
for one representative starting at $1,495 USD. At the $2,875 level,
receive booth space, registration for two representatives, and
recognition on our website and scientific program book. At the
$5,750 level, receive expanded booth space, registration for four
representatives, recognition on our website and scientific program
book, plus recognition for supporting a conference event. All exhibitors
will have additional opportunity to support conference events.
And if you cannot attend, a CD virtual presentation up to a minute
long can be shown of your company at a support level of $1,150
USD or more.
We will have vendor passports and raffles to encourage participation.
You will have a display table or booth space in the registration
area and will meet attendees during breakfast, breaks and at the
Friday vendor luncheon. You also have the option to join attendees
at the Friday evening New Members Reception and Dinner at additional
cost. Past exhibitors have numbered from 25-30 companies for our
annual meetings.
Your exhibit is important to us not only in helping defray conference
expenses, but for the commitment your company will show for the
surgeon’s professional growth and to the organization in
which they belong. We thank you and look forward to your interest
and partnership in this annual meeting.
Sincerely,
Michael J. Hart, MD
President
