LACA 2024: Looking for partners
Would you like to support the IV Latin American and Caribbean Congress of Conservation Biology? Are you interested in having your institution hold an exhibition in a stand?
LACA 2024 is looking for partner organizations to help host a successful conference. Becoming a sponsor will give your organization visibility, demonstrate your commitment to conservation efforts in the region, and enhance your profile among influential leaders and decision-makers. Organizations that support LACA 2024 also help offset the costs of the meeting and provide support to a scientific society and community of outstanding professionals.
Benefits for your organization
LACA 2024 offers your organization convenient and impactful opportunities to gain visibility among conservation professionals. Sponsorship or advertising during the Congress provides unique benefits, allowing you to accurately target the conference audience and effectively reach professionals with your message through conference emails, website, and on-site presence, among others.
Benefits for students and members of groups traditionally excluded and underrepresented in conservation
Your support allows students attending LACA 2024 to receive registration or travel assistance, facilitating opportunities to network with the conservation community, potential research supervisors, and employment prospects. Students can also improve their communication and presentation skills through a student awards competition, with modest prizes sponsored by their support.
In addition, your support provides registration and travel assistance for attendees from groups traditionally excluded and underrepresented in conservation. LACA aims to host an inclusive and equitable event that promotes professional and research advancement and collaboration for the entire conservation community. By minimizing financial barriers to attendance, sponsor support plays a vital role in creating meaningful impact.
Benefits for the conservation community
Your support will connect people across the continent who would not otherwise have the opportunity to network with their peers, ensuring that conservation professionals can attend LACA 2024. In summary, organizations that wish to contribute to the overall support of LACA 2024 will help cover the costs of the meeting and provide support for an outstanding program. Sponsorship opportunities are listed below.
We invite you to explore our sponsorship portfolio
To ensure the successful execution of the various activities planned for LACA 2024, we have developed the following Sponsorship Portfolio. Not only will this help cover the costs of organising the event, but more importantly, it will allow us to broaden the participation of young students interested in conservation by offering them conference registration scholarships.
Therefore, we are submitting the following Sponsorship Packages for your consideration. These packages will allow your organization to be part of this important initiative and platform to promote scientific research and conservation at the regional level, while covering the costs necessary for the development of various activities.
