Symposium Sponsorship

Each year, diverse organizations support the conference and Cal-IPC by becoming Symposium Sponsors. Symposium sponsors help Cal-IPC advance our mission to protect California's wildlands from invasive plants through research, restoration, and education. Sponsorship is a great opportunity to present your organization to the natural resources management community that works on wildland weeds. See the list of sponsors from the 2009 Symposium.

Sponsor exhibits will be displayed in our exhibit and poster hall, adjacent to our main sessions, where sponsors will have opportunities to interact with attendees during coffee breaks, lunch, and the exhibit and poster session. We offer four levels of sponsorship, with benefits as described below. More details can be found on the Sponsor Guidelines & Benefits Form. Sponsor online (preferred) or download the Sponsor Registration Form. Please contact Doug Johnson if you have questions.
