The Society of Hospital Pharmacists of Australia invites you to Get Smart and confirm your support now for Medicines Management 2013, the 39th SHPA National Conference, 19–22 September 2013, Cairns.

Supporter participation is a very important feature of the Medicines Management conferences and the industry exhibition, which conference delegates always look forward to, provides direct access for supporting companies to leading pharmacy practitioners. Please visit the conference website www.mm2013shpa.com for feedback from Supporters of MM2012 in Canberra where we had our largest exhibition ever.

As always there will be numerous opportunities for supporters to interact with conference delegates with the welcome reception, tea breaks, lunches and poster viewing all being held in the exhibition hall.

SHPA Medicines Management Conferences always attract a large number of delegates with an average of 900 delegates each year. The 2013 Scientific Committee have put together an innovative, diverse and engaging program which will ensure another successful continuing professional development event.

The supporter prospectus offers a variety of packages and is designed to provide numerous opportunities for participating companys’ brand exposure before and during the conference. In addition to the packages, I welcome the chance to discuss developing a package individually tailored to meet your specific company requirements.

All information will be available on the conference website: www.mm2013shpa.com

So Get Inspired and Get Smart: confirm your participation now.

The supporter booking form is attached. Please note booth position will be allocated in order of receipt of booking confirmation and no booth can be “held” prior to receipt of this form. Please read booking details thoroughly.

To our long term Supporter’s whose continuing support we greatly appreciate and to new Supporter’s, we look forward to your participation in Medicines Management 2013.

Kind regards
