Sponsorship Opportunities 

The OASPA conference takes a lot of time, energy and thoughtful input from many people. The conference also costs a lot of money to realise and would not be possible without our sponsors. We sincerely thank the following sponsors that made generous contributions which make the event possible. We are also grateful to Wellcome whose financial support coupled with OASPA enables us to support contributors and delegates from LMICs to attend where possible.

Please consider supporting us  – you can see our sponsorship opportunities here and email bernie.folan@oaspa.org for information.
