Sponsorship At-a-Glance
Right of First Refusal

AAEM adheres to a right of first refusal process for organizations who have supported particular programs or activities the previous year. This means that the previous year’s sponsor is given the option of confirming support of the same program or activity at next year’s meeting before sponsorship of that function can be offered to another organization.

Contact Missy Zagroba, CAE, AAEM Executive Director, for the latest availabilities, additions, ad specs, and deadlines. Some opportunities are subject to change. Advertisements are subject to AAEM approval prior to printing.
