Sponsorship and Exhibition

We encourage all cancer-fighting organisations to support the conference and get involved as sponsors or exhibitors. The central point of an AORTIC conference is the exhibition area where exhibitors, posters, charging stations, lunches and tea breaks are hosted. Here you can engage with other leaders in the fight against cancer, meet up-and-coming researchers, and showcase your products and services to Africa’s cancer-fighting community.
