The conference will focus on the things that matter to healthcare professionals in everyday practice including: • Asthma • COPD • Greener respiratory healthcare that is kinder

to the environment • Learning from COVID-19 • Respiratory Diagnosis • Tobacco dependency • Well-being and rehabilitation – self and

patients In this time of incredible change and uncertainty there is so much to learn and share. The PCRS virtual conference in 2020 offers companies a fantastic opportunity to communicate their key messages, showcase relevant products and services, and effectively engage with those working in primary community and intermediate respiratory care. We have a range of corporate sponsorship and exhibition opportunities available. Financial support from our sponsors and exhibitors is vital - it allows PCRS to offer affordable registration rates and helps to ensure we attract as many primary and community healthcare professionals as possible.

Held on 25th and 26th September, the conference will feature everything delegates and sponsors alike have come to expect of our national annual event....and more! There’ll be high value plenary presentations by leading experts, panel discussions, round-table workshops, research and service development abstracts and posters, a virtual interactive exhibition and a social programme where attendees can network and share experiences.

About the Virtual Platform


Conference graphics are designed to draw in delegates, help them to easily navigate their way around the conference environment. They're fun, visually compelling and help to ensure sponsors and exhibitors get maximum exposure and engagement

Example of exhibition area and lobby

Example graphics only – PCRS graphics currently in design



Example of fully responsive platform enabling delegates to log on and attend wherever they are via an mobile or tablet device




Exhibition stand representatives can engage with delegates via text/audio/video chat in real time. This interaction can happen via a group chat or through a 1:1 chat window if privacy is required. Delegates can book appointments with exhibitors to meet up virtually and engage.

Network with delegates

The virtual briefcase helps delegates to store anything you recommend to them from your stand and download once the event ends including data sheets, resources and educational materials

Share your resources with delegates


• Reach a wider respiratory audience – the event will be live for 30 days after the event ends meaning registered delegates can still visit your stand, message you and make appointments to talk to you

• Choose your own stand design • Include digital assets for delegates to add to their “virtual briefcase” which they can download at

any time or have emailed at the end of the conference • Enhance your brand position with UK primary and intermediate care respiratory leaders • After the event, we’ll provide you with comprehensive analytics on the engagement and metrics at

stand level and we’ll show you which digital assets worked and which didn't • Reach more delegates for less investment • Content produced for the conference will have the opportunity to be available via the PCRS website

after the event*

How will a virtual platform conference work for my company?
