Exhibit & Sponsor

Thank you for considering a sponsorship for our annual continuing medical education (CME) conference. This annual meeting provides an opportunity for Physician Assistants (PAs) from Arkansas and neighboring states to learn, network, and work towards advancing our profession. Our 2023 and 2024 conferences were our most well-attended conferences to date, and we anticipate continued growth in the coming year. Businesses like yours are a key part of our event. Sponsorships help ARAPA continue to provide quality programming and educational content, and expose attendees to innovative new services and the role your business can play for our patients. 

Approximately 100-150 PAs, PA students, and other healthcare professionals will be in attendance based on our current estimates. Two full days of educational programming are planned as well as an exciting social event on Friday night at Dust Bowl Lanes and Lounge. The Exhibit Hall will be held on Friday from 7:00 am - 4:30 pm and Saturday from 7:15 am - 3:15 pm. We will be encouraging attendees to meet with you all throughout the day, and award door prizes for completing a “vendor passport”. See further details in our exhibitor prospectus.
