MESSAGE FROM THE OPA PRESIDENT

Dear Sponsors and Exhibitors,

InterACTION is a great opportunity for our members to network and build relationships with industry leaders. Our exhibit hall offers the opportunity for OPA members and other health care professionals from across Ontario to learn more about therapeutic products available to them in their practice. For those who practice in rural parts of Ontario, our exhibit hall gives them the chance to connect face-to-face with vendors and build long-term relationships. InterACTION offers your company the opportunity to engage our members and showcase your company, products and services. Our conference continues to grow each year with over 330 attendees in 2017, and we invite you to be part of that continued growth in 2018!

Our new and exciting sponsorship opportunities will certainly grab the attention of our members, your customers, and encourage them to attend. On behalf of the Board of Directors of the Ontario Physiotherapy Association, we look forward to seeing you at InterACTION 2018.
