We have several sponsorship opportunities for the North American Regional Meeting of the International Society for Applied Ethology (ISAE). The ISAE is the professional body for biologists who study the behaviour of ‘managed’ animals (i.e. those in farms, labs, zoos or living in homes as pets). Their research increases understanding of the interactions between humans and other animals, and helps create a better balance between animal welfare and the requirements that humans have of other animals. ISAE members also represent a pool of independent experts for governments, international bodies, industry and NGOs.

We are looking to animal-related businesses and organizations to help support this great event via sponsorship opportunities. Benefits from being involved include:
- Unique opportunity to get your message to faculty and students working on various aspects of animal welfare and management from across Canada and the US: a chance to showcase your brand to current and future leaders in applied animal ethology from across North America.
- Support the development of future leaders. This conference allows students to showcase their research to an international audience, network with people working on a range of animal welfare issues, and build the skills required to lead their industries in the future.
You can view our full list of sponsorship opportunities below. If you would like to sponsor part of the conference, or have any questions, please reach out to lharper@uoguelph.ca.
