EXHIBITOR INFORMATION:
APTA Utah's Semi-Annual Spring Conference is coming up on March 29 & 30, 2024. It will be held at Utah Tech University and Virtually. We invite you to participate with us as a vendor.
This two-day conference will give your company plenty of exposure to professionals in physical therapy. We anticipate approximately 225 in virtual Physical Therapists and Physical Therapist Assistants from Utah and surrounding areas to attend. We hope you will take this opportunity to showcase your company‘s‘ products and services.
We will be holding a raffle for those who have received signatures from each vendor booth. We would love to have items directly from the vendors to raffle off. This encourages our attendees to visit your booth and also provides advertising outside of the conference with the items donated. Please let us know if you have something you wish to donate.
Virtual exhibitors receive a 30 second ad that will play on loop during the conference. Your ad will also be shared on all social media platforms and your logo on the homepage of aptautah.org
Please don‘t hesitate to contact us with any questions. We are looking forward to a successful Spring Conference 2024!
