Sponsorship of the NC Alliance to Create Opportunity through Education
(NC OPT-ED) Alliance Day Conference

Your company is cordially invited to be a sponsor of the NC OPT-ED Eighth Annual Alliance Day Conference on Friday, October 2, 2009 at the Greensboro Coliseum Complex Special Events Center, Greensboro, NC.  The theme “Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics:  Preparation for Excellence in the Global Economy” - reflects our Alliance’s recognition that the 21st Century world-class workforce must be prepared and trained to meet the needs of everyday citizens and the real-world economy.  This year, one of the primary focus areas of the conference is biotechnology and the career pathways that comprise its development, manufacturing and research. 

Your sponsorship will do the following: 

  • Create brand awareness among targeted student audience with special emphasis on those populations groups underrepresented in the science, biotechnology, engineering and mathematics fields
  • Introduce new and advanced educational opportunities to career-minded students and faculty
  • Differentiate yourself from your competition and benefit from the shared imagery of an NC OPT-ED sponsorship
  • Enable more North Carolina students to participate in the Alliance Day conference

The Alliance Day Conference is free to all attendees, and as such, your sponsorship is important to us.
