Sponsor the Spring Research Festival
SRF is an exclusive and cost-effective opportunity to reach military and government medical,
research, and scientific professionals from the agencies of National Interagency Confederation
for Biological Research (NICBR) and many other federal agencies, state and local
organizations, and nonprofits involved in the medical research and development community.
Reach 800+ government and industry attendees, including researchers, scientists, lab
technicians, analysts, medical professionals, program managers, IT, contracting specialists,
agency leaders, and other vital roles, as well as connect with industry representatives from large
and small businesses for teaming opportunities.
More attendees are expected at SRF 2025 than ever because of the expanded Symposium
education program located at the CAC building next to the Odom Fitness Center (within walking
distance), Poster displays in the Exhibition, the mandate for federal employees to return to the
office, and food trucks serving lunch at the Odom Fitness Center both days (lunch will be
provided for government attendees).
Events generate the highest return on investment of any marketing channel and SRF 2025 is a
cost-effective event to reach a targeted audience and engage and educate attendees on your
company and capabilities. Learn more about the event and benefits of participating:
Amplify your brand presence, enhance your company’s thought leadership, drive traffic to your
booth, capture qualified leads, and more importantly talk to leaders, program managers,
researchers, and scientists about upcoming contract opportunities and support services
needed at the agencies attending.
