Why Sponsors and Exhibitors Should Attend This International Conference
Sponsorship and Exhibitor Information - 
 
  
A New, Exciting Conference
In 2008 and 2010 we hosted the SBIR National Conference and attracted about 1000 attendees each time. This year, we were asked to "kick it up a notch!"
 
Our customers have been asking us to help them sell their innovations globally.  They want to broaden their knowledge of what is needed globally, and understand the complexities of selling overseas. 

What's New for 2012?
  • More global companies that wish to partner with small businesses
  • The CTiHUB -- a business Social Networking Site
  • Representatives from major global markets looking for innovation: Europe, India, China, South America, the Middle East
  • Mohegan Sun venue
  • More Traffic at booths!
This year we are expecting over 1000 attendees to come. Most of the 11 SBIR agencies will be attending. Additionally, major prime defense contractors, large corporations and universities will be coming.
 
We are always asked by sponsors if they can have an attendee list prior to the conference.  Well . . . we think we have an even better solution.
 
We have developed an interactive "CTiHUB" website that sponsors and exhbitors can use BEFORE and AFTER the conference to connect with attendees.
 
Mohegan Sun has wireless access -- so there should not be issues with connecting to the internet.

Who Will Be Attending?
SBIR companies are small technology businesses that are US owned and have 500 or fewer employees. These innovators come from all over the US to learn what the government needs for the next several years, what large businesses are looking for downstream, and to be inspired by the presentations over the course of the program.

Smaller manufacturers come to partner with small businesses.  Like larger companies, they are seeking innovation to improve their competitive edge.  

Universities, government agencies, countries interested in exports, service providers etc. will all be attending.
