By Gregg Hillyer, IFAJ Sponsorship Committee Co-Chair
AAEA is cleaning the red carpet as the U.S. prepares to host the 2019 International Federation of Agricultural Journalists Congress. It will be held in conjunction with the annual Ag Media Summit in Minneapolis, July 24- 31. IFAJ is a professional organization comprised of editors and communicators in 50 countries.
A joint meeting of this scale requires an army of volunteers and the generous support of sponsors. An investment in the event offers sponsors the opportunity to make connections with ag journalists who reach farmers and ranchers from every corner of the world. It’s the ideal venue to promote a company’s or organization’s products, programs and news, while developing invaluable contacts.
There are exceptional sponsorship options to fit every budget. They include
- Keynote and workshop speakers
- Farm/industry tours
- World-class receptions and dinners
- Lunches and refreshment breaks
- Registration, transportation and more
The Sponsorship Committee can provide potential sponsors with all the details. You can contact any of the following committee members:
