Hilton Birmingham Metropole Hotel12-14 March 2016

2016

No matter its location, Optometry Tomorrow consistently:

• attracts over 700 engaged, forward-thinking optometrists

• provides high-quality CET

• receives outstanding feedback from delegates, sponsors and exhibitors alike

• offers a sizeable and growing trade exhibition.

Optometry Tomorrow is the event that you need to attend – read on to find out why.

A word from the College President

Optometry Tomorrow is one of the UK’s leading optometric events and offers a unique opportunity to connect with some of the most proactive, engaged and influential professionals in the sector. This, the College’s annual conference and exhibition, has been established for over a decade and attracts committed and enthusiastic delegates from independent, multiple, locum and hospital settings. Experience tells us that these professionals are interested in the latest developments, products and services that will help them to deliver the very best in eye health care.

Last year’s event was our most successful to date, with over 700 delegates in attendance and more sponsors and exhibitors than ever before, and the 2016 conference and exhibition, being held at the Hilton Birmingham Metropole Hotel from 12-14 March, is promising to be even more successful.

We would like you to join us as sponsor and/or exhibitor at Optometry Tomorrow 2016. Feedback from the last few years has helped us to develop and improve our range of packages as you will see in this brochure. This ensures that we can provide even more benefits and greater value for money than ever before.

If you would like to discuss sponsorship and exhibition opportunities, or have any questions, please do not hesitate to call Amy Marsh, Events Manager, on +44 (0)20 7766 4386 or Julie Hawkins, Head of Events, on +44 (0)20 7766 4343.

We look forward to working with you, and hope you will join us in Birmingham.

Yours sincerely,

David Parkins FCOptomPresident

Topics in the 2016 programme include: AMD, glaucoma, binocular vision, OCT, dry eye, fundus photography and a blue light debate. Streams include therapeutics for independent prescribers, peer discussion and a brand new contact lens stream.

Isn’t this just another optometry conference? What makes it different?

• Optometry Tomorrow is renowned for its high-quality clinical CET content, giving delegates the talks they want to listen to and the skills they want to learn

• Event numbers are growing – in recent years the conference has grown from 300 to 700 attendees

• Our delegates are UK-based decision-makers - they’re the people you want to meet!

• March is the ideal time of year to build relationships which you can cement at other events later in the industry exhibition calendar

• Each year, the conference moves to a different location in the UK, giving you the opportunity to reach even more potential customers

• We have a clear pricing structure for sponsors and exhibitors

• Sponsor packages have been built with you in mind, giving you a number of ways to interact with delegates before, during and after the event.

Tell me moreThis unique event, which attracts hundreds of UK optometrists, is a two-day educational conference, featuring lectures, seminars, skills workshops, discussion workshops, peer discussions and an extensive trade exhibition. Social events during Optometry Tomorrow include a welcome reception, held within the exhibition, and a black-tie gala dinner.

We have 2,200 College members located in the Midlands to whom we will heavily market the event, and will mention our sponsors in every

promotional conference email, hard copy mailing and the delegate brochure. The Hilton Birmingham Metropole Hotel is easily accessible from all parts of the UK and we are expecting it to be our biggest conference yet!

What will I miss out on if I don’t attend Optometry Tomorrow?

• Nearly eight hours of contact time with decision-making professionals from across the UK

• Access to the leaders and opinion formers of the profession

• Exhibition space in a well thought-out floor plan that ensures everyone is visible

• A two-hour welcome reception to kick off the conference, giving you an excellent opportunity to meet and mix with delegates

• An entry in a voucher booklet included in every delegate envelope, with their lanyard, which you can use to market special offers that will entice them to visit your stand and/or website

• Frequent, targeted publicity in the months leading up to the event

• A prize draw that will ensure delegates are encouraged to visit every stand

• A timetabled hour-long interactive session that will give you meaningful contact with up to 30 delegates*

• Use of a meeting room which you can use to hold your own delegate sessions**.
