Why Innovative Techniques® is Different from Other Meetings

Tired of big meetings that promise huge numbers, but deliver little face-to-face with your target audience? Then try us on for size. You’ll get:

Face-to-face interaction over the course of 3 days with 300+ orthopedic surgeons, residents, and fellows, including hard-to-reach “no see” orthopedic surgeons

Intimate environment conducive to forging relationships with key orthopedic surgeons looking for the latest technology, tools, and techniques to improve patient outcomes

Strategically designed schedule, layout, and atmosphere intended to maximize interaction between audience and sponsors

Opportunity to distribute enduring materials to the wider audience of orthopedic surgeons through The American Journal of Orthopedics

Cost-efficient vehicle with a higher ROI—much more so than at larger association meetings


The American Journal of Orthopedics

The American Journal of Orthopedics is a peer-reviewed, monthly journal providing timely, practical, and readable technical information of the highest caliber

to the orthopedic surgeon involved in the everyday practice of orthopedics.

The American Journal of Orthopedics presents unbiased, comprehensive, and clinically relevant review articles, original studies, case reports, and practical department features. Circulation: 29,500

PRESENTED BY:

What is the Innovative Techniques® Course?

Innovative Techniques® is a 3-day national educational meeting for orthopedic surgeons designed to keep them current with the latest techniques in orthopedic surgery and non-surgical alternatives.

Led by Conference Chair Bryan Hanypsiak, MD, our faculty of nationally renowned orthopedic surgeons will present the latest techniques in treating knee, hip, and shoulder conditions, from nonoperative regimens to arthroscopy to arthroplasty. Discussion and debate will be encouraged.

Innovative Techniques® is the must-attend meeting for orthopedists to get a comprehensive update on the repair, reconstruction, revision and replacement of the knee, shoulder, and hip.

OPPORTUNITIES

SATELLITE SYMPOSIA (PROMOTIONAL OR CME)

Innovative Techniques® will have dedicated exclusive timeslots for either educational or promotional symposia. To maximize attendance, no other session or activity will run against them. These symposia will take place in the same room as the general sessions allowing the supporter/sponsor to utilize the existing audio-visual set-up. Since breakfast and lunch are included in the participant’s overall registration fee, supporters/sponsors do not have to worry about the Sunshine Act, as the sponsorship/supporter fee does not go toward food & beverage.

Benefits of Presenting Your Satellite Symposium at Innovative Techniques®

ROBUST PROMOTIONYour symposium will benefit from our promotional efforts before and throughout the conference. In addition to handouts and signage onsite, inclusion on our Web site and in email blasts prior to the conference will help drive awareness of your program.
