Be a Northland Bioneers Conference Benefactor

Benefactors help defray the cost of event by supplementing registration income! A commitment to diverse inclusion requires a low cost for the event and an ambitious scholarship program. There are many ways to benefit and get benefits with the Northland Bioneers Conference.

Donors made up almost half of the ’06 non-registration income. Gifts ranged from $10 to $2500. You can donate online (scroll down once you are taken to this site), or send a check made payable to Northland Sustainable Solutions to P.O. Box 184 Shakopee, MN 55379. Join other contributors like the Ten by Ten Foundation. Your donation is tax deductible.

A unique sponsor program has been designed to benefit organizations that provide cash or in-kind resources. This unique recognition program will add value to your endeavors; including direct name affiliation to thousands of people in our pre-conference promotion, exhibitor space, and segment acknowledgement during the conference. Join other organizations like Milkweed Editions, Haberman Agency and Eureka Recycling who are benefiting by benefiting.

Early registration for the conference as an attendee or exhibitor greatly supports the financial sustainability of the conference. Paid attendance accounts for nearly 40% of the total ’07 projected income. This year, we’re asking everyone who can to purchase a day or weekend pass; even significant contributors like volunteers and presenters. Registration cost has been cut by more than half to increase accessibility. Scholarships will be provided to those who can not otherwise attend.

Share your excitement about the Northland Bioneers Conference with your network by passing along promotional emails, adding a link to your website, or distributing flyers. Promotional partners who promote to 500 or more participants will be listed in the program and added to the Northland Bioneers Conference Partners Page. Efforts like this depend on spreading the word.
