AHP Member Sponsorships Support Publishing Seminar

By , June 2, 2014

Sponsorships play a supportive role in providing attendees with an opportunity to learn from professional speakers as well as experience special events. To encourage better communication and build relationships with equine media, AHP sponsors must also be members of the association. Multiple opportunities to network and share ideas create an environment which develops partnerships, increases business, and improves journalism.
