2 The premier Australian meeting for clinicians with a special interest in incontinence Dear Colleagues, Hosted by the Continence Foundation of Australia, the 25th National Conference on Incontinence will offer an ideal opportunity to access the most dynamic, committed and informed group of medical, nursing, physiotherapy and specialist health professionals in the continence field, combined with a comprehensive trade exhibition and concurrent scientific program. Manufacturers and suppliers of continence-related products and services are invited to meet and do business with your entire audience in one location, to showcase your company and products in a friendly and professional atmosphere. Sponsorship opportunities have been developed to provide you with the platform to demonstrate your interest and commitment to our industry with your company promoted and acknowledged in the lead up to and throughout the conference. Another great attendance of over 700 delegates from around Australia and overseas is anticipated and I invite your company to invest in one of the many sponsorship opportunities in this booklet. Alternatively, talk to me about other ideas you may have for your participation in our Adelaide 2016 conference at the Adelaide Convention Centre. I look forward to your organisation s involvement and contribution to the success of our scientific meeting.
