Funding the Conference
updated September 22, 2010

Gloria Lattanzio, Chief Executive Organizer

W
e are working to change the 'old order of things', the one which favours the privileged few who have the time and money to attend physical conferences, pay for journal articles and subscription knowledge by:

making healthcare knowledge accessible and available to all healthcare professionals, anytime, anywhere, FREE of charge.

We are small, nimble and operate on a shoestring budget. We do so by choice and by design. We do not seek, or receive, funding of any kind from, nor do we look to, traditional sources such as government, special interest groups or corporate investment.

Instead we look to 3 distinct, yet complementary, funding models:

  • Presentation services,
  • Sponsorship, and
  • Donations

Presentation services: We are continuously creating and sell an assortment of specialized services. Presentation services are designed with businesses, organizations, consultants and professionals in mind. They are designed to increase the visibility, value and impact the work, products and services showcased.

Our goal is to become self-sustaining by funding the ongoing design, operation and maintenance costs of the platform from the sale of Presentation services.

Sponsorship: We use sponsorship as a conduit - to channel monetary resources from those who have to those who have not. Sponsorship is designed for organizations and businesses which want to support and advance work in specific areas of healthcare.

Donations: Finally, we look to donations to support the ongoing development of the Conference platform. This includes R & D into new technologies, new methodologies and new ways by which professionals, organizations and business can better showcase their work, products and services.

"Grounded in age old values of thrift and frugality, these funding models are designed to deliver maximum value to all presenters, participants, exhibitors, sponsors, donors and staff through the judicious and effective use of funds."
