"It's a wonderful conference! The venue is great with plenty of room for PwP to navigate the exhibit hall without it being congested and a fall risk situation. Hats off to everyone who worked on bringing it to fruition and to the attendees and my fellow vendors. I love the intimacy of it and the beautiful connections I had with so many attendees who stopped by my booth. THANK YOU!" -- Conference Exhibitor
We are gearing up for our popular Annual Education Conference on October 24 in Sacramento, CA. The theme is, "Care Beyond the Diagnosis: Voices, Tools, and Togetherness,” and we look forward to an audience of over 1,000 attendees (800+ in-person and 200+ virtually) from the Parkinson’s community in NorCal and beyond. PANC can highlight your company as a valued sponsor and/or exhibitor and provide your product/service with significant exposure to this rapidly growing and information eager community.
Our event attracts attendees with PD their family members/friends, and community professionals who are interested in learning more about the disease and its impact.
The program features highly sought-after experts, movement disorder specialists, neurologists, and others who lead an information-packed day of education, resources, and support. We look forward to seeing you on October 24 for our very popular annual event!
