Industry Supporter Information

With APWCA2012, we will continue to offer many exciting options and opportunities to recognize the financial support your company provides to APWCA.  The result is increased awareness of the services and/or products that you provide to the wound care community.  Please note the enclosed material explaining various new opportunities available and contact us with any questions or suggestions.
 
When providing support, there are many considerations as to where each company or organization chooses to donate their funding. Here are some of those considerations that should hopefully allow the company you represent to allow APWCA to be a primary Association to receive your support. During the past nine years, since our formation in May, 2001, the Association has grown to approximately 2,500 members, 75% - 80% of which are prescribing physicians. APWCA is one of the most rapidly expanding organizations in wound care in the United States and with increased membership, we have also developed many new activities to support the members who provide wound care to patients on a daily basis.

Industry support is vital toward carrying out the mission of the Association.  There are important differences that are part of supporting APWCA and its National Clinical Conference.  First is that our membership demographic is about 80% physician and a large percentage of conference attendees are also physicians. Additionally, APWCA is a completely independent organization and not affiliated with a corporate entity. This is an important distinction as many, if not ALL, other larger national wound care conferences that are multidisciplinary are affiliated with a major corporation or often owned by a for profit organization.

APWCA is involved with many activities that benefit and move the field of wound care further. The APWCA supports industry through insurance interaction and other methods so that providers may have access to services and supplies needed to treat patients. The increased scope of Association activities and programs require greater financial resources.
 
We hope you will once again make a financial commitment to assist the APWCA in meeting its goals and objectives.  Please also consider increasing your level of financial support so that this Association can continue to flourish as we partner together to improve care, provide educational resources and champion patient advocacy.  
 
Please feel free to contact the APWCA if you have any questions or would like to discuss your commitment to APWCA2012.  Thank you very much for your consideration.
