WELCOME LETTER ORGANISING COMMITTEE MEMBERS

Dear Sponsor,

On behalf of the Organizing Committee I would like to invite you to attend the 54th SEMDSA Congress. The congress will be held from 25th to the 28th of March 2021 at the Southern Sun Elangeni & Maharani, Durban.

Our preparations for SEMDSA 2021 are already underway, and we are looking forward to welcoming numerous delegates at the congress.

As you will notice from this prospectus document, we have a number of sponsorship opportunities available for your selection. Please contact us to discuss any special needs or requirements that your company may have – we value your contribution and participation to ensure a successful 54th

SEMDSA Congress in 2021!

Key components of the sponsorship packages available at SEMDSA 2021 are the active marketing and branding opportunities for both your company and the products you promote - these are detailed in the accompanying Sponsorship Benefits Grid later in the book. Should you not find a sponsorship package that addresses the needs of your company, please contact the conference secretariat directly to discuss a tailored package.

We welcome all our sponsors to SEMDSA 2021 and thank you in advance for your support.

Kind regards,

Dr Ashegan Pillay
