Corporate MEMBER

The HGSA encourages our industry partners to become Corporate Members. The funds raised through Corporate Member fees are pooled and distributed to support educational events at both local and Federal levels. This supports branch and SIG events, including traditional workshops or lectures and webinars but excluding the Annual Meeting and SIG days.
Individual events do not carry individual sponsorship, but all Corporate Members are acknowledged in advertising material and at the event.
Corporate Members are also given the opportunity to attend biannual meetings with key members of the HGSA Board of Directors where development and enhancement of the partnerships are discussed.
