Sponsorship Opportunities
The Midwest Reproductive Symposium International (MRSi), a non-profit 501 (c)(3) organization, is an educational event
that began in 2005 to promote the timely discussion of issues relevant to reproductive medicine. The primary objective is
the provision of high quality, appropriate, continuing medical education for physicians, nurses, allied health professionals
and basic scientists engaged in the practice of and research in reproductive medicine. The 3-day MRSi program consists
of a mix of lectures, panel discussions and interactive workshops. It offers attendees a unique opportunity to network with
colleagues and exhibitors in casual and formal educational settings and to share knowledge and experiences in several
rapidly advancing fields within reproductive medicine. The 2015 program faculty (as well as past events) can be found at
the meeting website www.mrsmeeting.org.
Nurse Practicum Program is one of the only nursing education opportunities offered in the United States today, the Nurse Practicum is a program specifically designed for nurses by nurses that is an integral part of the MRSi conference presented as an optional day on Thursday, June 11, 2015.
Business Minds Program is an educational platform created for reproductive medical professionals to gather and discuss innovative trends and thought‐provoking concepts within business world of reproductive medicine.
REI Fellows Day is a unique opportunity offered to fellows within the reproductive medical field. It also invites them to share their research to medical professionals. Each year fellows are selected to attend MRSi and display a poster presentation of their work at the scientific session.
Psychology Tea is a captivating forum that brings together experts of the mental health profession and reproductive medicine colleagues for an open discussion on how to counsel patients who face difficult decisions. This is a unique opportunity to share challenges and explore strategies.
Target Audience
MRSi is attended by physicians, nurses, allied health professionals and basic scientists, from around the world,
who are highly engaged in the practice of and research in reproductive medicine. In 2005, the meeting was attended by 170 health care professionals. Since then, the MRSi program has seen an increase in attendance. In
2014, the event was host to over 330 participants.
Why Sponsor MRSi?
The Midwest Reproductive Symposium international is a unique opportunity to market your organization
during an event like no other in the industry. MRSi has a boutique feel but includes the top Key Opinion
Leaders in reproductive medicine from around the world. This event is large enough for impact but small
enough to effectively influence at an individual level. Sponsoring is the perfect way to market your company to
industry leaders in reproductive medicine. This program will give you the best value for your marketing dollar
in any conference held in the industry today.
Theme
This year’s theme is centered around the Chicago Italian influence (including the era of Al Capone). MRSi
2015 is held in Chicago, IL where Al Capone and others from Italian immigrants had influences on the local
culture. Many movies enjoyed have themes from speakeasy saloons and events around this time of our city.
We have incorporated some of these classic movies to title our 2015 social events and this Italian theme will
play out through the weekend.
